Do you have a Christmas you'll always
remember as kind of #therapeutic,
because you had an experience or gained an understanding that changed your thinking or life for the better? #counselling #therapy

3/3: Here's truth: you do not ever need to accept where you are, be it a physical environment, an emotional state of being, or in some way on the outside looking in. Change your life. A counsellor can help you find your ways forward.

2/3: Yes, your choices create the conditions you later have to live with - but the proverb collapses so much into a single moment of blame. It implies inevitability; permanence; stagnation. It's almost a curse, definitely a dismissal.

However...

1/3: "They've made their bed, they can lie in it." It's a very old saying - goes back to at least the 16th century, with its earliest clear appearance in English around 1546, in John Heywood’s A Dialogue of Proverbs. And it's wrong, in part. #changeyourlife #counselling #therapy

Just a heads-up that, while I can be reached for booking an initial free 30-minute #counselling assessment Monday to Friday, 9.30am-5pm, I do offer evenings and Saturday mornings when I've got availability - so please ask if those are what you're looking for. UK clients only. #therapy

Samaritans is a charity offering 24/7 confidential emotional support for anyone distressed, struggling to cope, or having thoughts of harming themselves. They listen, don’t judge, don’t give advice or tell you what to do. Their free UK helpline number is 116 123. #counselling #therapy #reflections

#Humour can show up in #therapy - sometimes from clients, sometimes (carefully, respectfully) from me. It’s never about making light of someone’s pain, and it’s not something that fits every moment or person. But it can loosen tension and help to open up space for honesty. That can be #therapeutic.

A no filler guide to #attachmentstyles. Do any of them sound like you? There's no bad to gaining better understanding of ourselves and if there are any issues in life around your #attachment style, a #counsellor can help as these styles are not forever fixed. #counselling #therapy

#Boundaries shouldn't be difficult to understand and actually, they aren't. It can be hard to keep yours maintained but it's important that you do if you're not comfortable. #counselling #therapy

I wish people would stop calling Keir Starmer Keir Stoma. My #stoma is useful. It saved my life and freed me from pain and suffering. I'm better off physically, emotionally, and psychologically with a stoma. The joke doesn't land. You might even say it's crap.

If you have ❤️ and care for someone in mental distress with bad thoughts, like they're not worth anything or hate who they are, share this picture with them as a gentle way of introducing a different perspective.

This callous woman is absolutely deaf to sense and justice, yet in charge of the nation's finances. Yesterday, she said the broadest shoulders must contribute the most. I had no idea in her mind people with disabilities are top of the money-to-spare tree.

In #counselling, we may explore parts of ourselves we believe to be #broken. Yet it is in those very cracks that #love & #compassion can enter. #Healing does not mean erasing #grief or #longing. Even in brokenness, you are worthy of being seen, heard, & supported.

Without taking risks, there are times when the story can’t move forward - it stays stuck on the same page. Why are you still with him when you don't love him? Why do you stay in a job that is impacting on your health?

There are no #stoma-friendly #accessible toilets at public venues in my home region of #Craven, North Yorkshire. The nearest are at Xscape in Castleford, West Yorkshire, 29.6 miles away. There are 89 accessible toilets but they aren't fully accessible to stomamates.

When life feels overwhelming, people who truly love you will understand your need for #space. Your #counsellor will also get it, providing you with a #nonjudgmental #safespace where you can pause, breathe, and find your way back to yourself, rediscovering your strength at your own pace.
