I'm a therapist - ask me anything! :)
Hi all of you,
Well this looks interesting! Feel free to ask me anything :)
I'm Lisa and a trained therapist. I've worked in the South African Police force and very interested in trauma. I love all things psychology and therapy :)

Heya Lisa >.<
I have a few questions!
1) When and how did you discover your passion and interest in psychology?
2) Do you have any pets, if so what are they?
3) What is one thing you'd like to do before 2018?
@Joe2017 Amazing questions - thank you :)
I found my passion several times through studying things that were wrong for me... teaching and nursing! So each time I'd have to do psychology as part of my course I'd get so intrigued. I'd say my nature has been very nurturing since a young child but it was only when I had a brain injury that I realised my passion for psychology was so so strong. It was very serious and I was telling paramedics there is no way I am getting in the ambulance as I have a psychology exam!! So I've loved psychology for a VERY long time and I have loved it eversince the day I found my passion growing. :) I love people and I find life very interesting so that probably plays into it!
My partner has pets, he has two pitbulls called Nala and Helium so I have inherited furbabies. I love animals especially cats :) I'm a big nature lover.
Good question, before 2018? I hope that I find my soul back where I left it when I visit Africa. I used to live there for 7 years. Thank you so much for starting this :)
