For the past eight years or so I've worked for a national charity helping people suffering from anxiety disorders. I have been trained by the charity and to deepen my understanding I've taken a diploma in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. I am absolutely fascinated with the brain in general, and in particular with the part that brings these disorders into play. I am also interested in literature and the arts. I took an A level in English Literature and studied towards, but never completed, a Bachelor of Arts degree with the Open University. Now I like to amuse myself by writing flash fiction stories.
