staying focused

I am currently doing home visits with families who have lost a child. I often work with one or more of the siblings without the parents present. In my personal life I had lost a sibling and find that when doing art work with the children I tap into my own grief around my loss. I am doing art on my own around my sibling, but find it uncomfortable to have it suface when I want to be present for the client. At times I have wanted to refrain from doing art with them, but I see that as a power of therapist over client.
