Linda: I have no idea if you will even receive this message or will be able to read it but I just want to say that your very brave book has deeply resonated with me, i.e. I feel that now I am ready to deal with childhood issues including the death of my mother and further losses which emanated from it. I am really searching for a counsellor who could help me at present and wonder if you are able to recommend anyone around Glasgow. My GP has not been able to help me in this regard. Thanks again for your book.
Kindest regards – Margaret Summers
Dear Margaret
Thank you for your comments. I’m not able to recommend anyone, but you can locate therapists who are approved by and registered by the UK Council for Psychotherapy via https://www.psychotherapy.org.uk
It’s a good place to search. Best wishes
Linda
