I've never really been much to enjoy the whole therapy thing. Two of my previous therapists were not helpful and maybe that could've been my fault for not being as open as I'd have hoped to be. Christopher is and has been such a wonderful human being and has helped me find beauty in the things that haven't mattered to me more before. I'm glad and very lucky to have stumbled upon him.
