C1C2 projects aim to provide peer support and “counseling” on a one-to-one basis. They are based on the premise that many women go to psychiatrists and psychotherapists because it is helpful at times to talk about one’s self, one’s decisions, and one’s troubles to a person who is committed to focusing attention on you, but who is not a close friend or member of your family. Respectful attention without interpretation or analysis, without fear of challenge or interruption is helpful when trouble strikes or when decisions must be made. (8 pp.)
