    I got interested by the short definition you gave about the article so I took time to read it. I think it is regretful that some people can not get as many session as the might need and that even some psychologist are worried about their patients because of that.

  Let me tell you a little about myself and how I chose to become a psychologist. First and foremost, let me ask you who doesn’t love gossip? I certainly do! I have always loved to listen to people’s business and help them sort things out. But I have never been the type of person to go all up in people’s business and spread false rumors.

Interesting Sources Used in My Oral Presentation

Here are some sources I used in my oral presentation First source:  Mayo Clinic. Lewy body dementia.  Mayo Clinic.   https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/lewy-body-dementia/symptoms-causes/syc-20352025 In this article, the Mayo Clinic explains what is Lewy body dementia. The staff talks about the symptoms that people with Lewy body dementia may suffer from. Additionally, they present the different causes of this disease and what risk factors to look for.
