Dr. Wilder says, “I know most people don’t feel special, many feel more special than they deserve and that people have gotten lots of healing and may yet not feel special.” Dr. Wilder will address your specialness and answer questions like:

Why is specialness one of the hardest things to heal? What is this paradox of feeling special and how it relates to closeness? How is ‘feeling special’ related to grace and grace related to ‘feeling special’?
