Epistles from the Couch: Musings and Reflections on Psychotherapy

Psychotherapy. The word conjures up a host of associations…leather couches, perhaps. Sigmund Freud. The asking and answering of difficult question, the most important of which is usually – “how does this make you feel?”

I’ve been in therapy for more than a decade, and in that time I’ve had more than my fair share of tears and fears shared both on and off the couch. It’s been a wild ride, and I’d like to think that I’ve learnt enough that it may be of use to someone other than myself. In these pages you’ll find some battle scars and medals, some musings and reflections and dare I hope – maybe even some gems of wisdom.
