Across the Room - Jennifer Degenhardt

The work begins by noticing the person in the room - and by sitting with what lingers there after.

Five teenagers sit in the same school counseling office, each carrying something different: pressure, secrets, loneliness, and choices that are beginning to shape their lives.

Through quiet conversations and what lingers between sessions, Across the Room invites us to slow down, notice difference, and really see the person in front of us. In a world quick to label and judge, these stories remind us that understanding often begins simply by paying attention.
