Teresa has difficulty asserting her will and desires directly and openly. She may also suppress her anger and aggressiveness. Developing self-confidence, courage, and faith in herself are important tasks for Kerry.

She may have nebulous but ever-present guilt and fears that are difficult to pinpoint or eradicate. It is as if Teresa Heinz Kerry does not trust Life itself, and is always seeking ways to defend herself from its dangers and its unknowns.
