While the therapy work focuses very much on the present, there is some focus on the past as well. Sometimes it is the past where our emotions reside and need to be seen by a compassionate eye.
Other than that, I love travelling that takes me close to nature, I absolutely love dogs and cats and have some of mine. If I write anymore, it might as well be the start of an autobiography!
