MY blog...
As the title says, welcome to my blog! This is the place to find out what's happening with PostScript as a business, but more often it's here to give you some entertainment, some knowledge, some insight on subjects I'm passionate about or, failing that, just somewhere to pass the time.
I want to update this blog regularly (workload permitting) so please come back often to read our latest posts (the latest one is always at the top). Please feel free to share them with your family and friends, comment and, if you like any of them, please hit the heart icon ♥️. Enjoy!

When Words Fail: Coping with Loss Through Writing
There is a cruel irony to grief; it arrives heavy with feeling, yet often robs us of language. My clients tell me this all the time. They'll say things like “I don’t know how to put it into words.” or “I know how I feel, I just can’t say it” which is usually where I step in.

They come to me because words have failed them, but they still feel an overwhelming need to say
