Born in my dreams and refusing to be stillborn over 18 months, I gathered a team of fellow travellers and voila, here it is.
Like any baby, it has wrinkles, cries a lot and costs me sleep time but also makes me want to live and reach out to my world. There are 5 zones that I want to focus on: men, children, chronic conditions, young persons, managing moods.
‘Men’ because I had a lot of trouble discovering how to be one;
‘Children’ as they always seem to follow me around, first as a teacher and then a psychotherapist;
‘Chronic Conditions’ because I have MS for what seems forever; ‘Managing Moods’ because I work as a psychotherapist / mind coach and, surprise surprise, myself have borderline personality disorder from my teens; finally, my favourite because they’re the trickiest,
‘Young Persons’, as I have worked with them (teens and young adults) and it’s been a blast - love them to bits! Simply put, I’m putting out there what I know about and flows in my veins. I’m really hoping you join me on this wee journey.
