Care & Connection
Posted by siteadmin on May 16, 2024
Back from a weeks break and just sitting in my office reflecting on my time.
Where ever I am in my life be that my physical or inner presence , the people I care about come into my thoughts. They may rest a while and then continue on their way or they may sit a while longer before moving on. In those moments often I learn something about that person that perhaps I hadn’t seen before or it confirms something that feels important for me and perhaps then also for them.
Wherever I travel between those times when I am next with - Read More

What were you told you’re not?
Not sporty, not careful, not academic, not quiet, not practical, not thoughtful, not funny, not handsome, not sociable, not beautiful, not deserving, not…not…not

You matter
Posted by siteadmin on December 15, 2023
My clients remain in my thoughts between our appointments together and breaks in our work together because I genuinely without any hidden agenda simply care about them, their lives and their world.
Why? because one person did this for me and changed the direction on my life.
I am here , for them, with them when their internal weather is a tornedo or a sunset, walking side by side with them if they can allow me to share in their world as they experience it.
It can be so hard for them to put themselves as a priority in their own life but - Read More

It is often widely misunderstood and can be chaotically handled / mishandled in healthcare systems often meaning that individuals are treated for individual symptoms such as depression, eating disorders, generalised anxiety, substance abuse, relationship difficulties, self harm/suicide attempts in adolescence and adulthood without recognising the fuller picture that so much more is happening for these individuals.
Individuals with complex needs will very often have experience significant trauma particularly around relationships in - Read More

New Year…New you?
Posted by siteadmin on January 5, 2023

It’s something we often say or hear but what does that actually mean?
“I can’t face this right now”
“I want to put this off /avoid it as long as possible”
“I don’t want to think about this”
But what if you did?
What’s stopped you up until now?
What’s stopping you now?
What is so important is to ask the questions of yourself without judgement but with curiosity instead…
You aren’t alone and sometimes it’s just so hard or frightening or worrying or confusing to follow through with what we feel might change our lives for the better.
