Get To Know Me

If you could pick one movie or book that influenced your approach to therapy, what would it be and why?

I would say the Swedish film "My Life As Dog". It was about a boy whose parents could not take care of him, so he went to live with relatives, and what the film taught me was that you need one solid adult in your life to help you become a well-rounded and decent person.
