Hello! So, here's my introduction. I come from Brighton in the UK and I practise ninpo under Stuart Allison. I'm in 8th Kyu and hope to grade soon. I'm also a keen writer, hiker and as I suggested in my username, am a trained therapist. I think that's everything, at least for now, so I'll leave it there. Until I return, everybody! NT
First off, welcome to MAP! Second, I'm glad you pointed out you're a therapist. Makes your username a little easier to understand!
Thanks! Ah... yes. I realised this a few hours after I'd submitted it as a username. I'm hoping most people read it as two words and not three. Would it be a good idea to request a name change, or a capitalisation for Therapist to help avoid confusion, I wonder? I don't want to be a pain in the bottom, asking for a name change so soon but I also don't want to nettle anybody.
What sort of therapist? MAP is much more than just about martial arts so people's backgrounds can coe into play on occasion.
Heya Smitfire, I'm a head/talking therapist, specialising in Transactional Analysis. I did a bit of Person-Centered at the beginning, too. I'm nearly ready to take my final exams, and then I'll be able to practice, which'll be awesome!
