This week is mental health awareness week. Mental health is complex, uncomfortable, unpredictable and completely different for everyone. Counselling offers a safe space for your unique experience; a place of understanding to explore what is happening for you

Reaching out for help takes a lot of courage, particularly if you’ve always been told men should be strong, and it’s weak to talk about your emotions. Men are always welcome in my therapy room, without judgement. Everyone deserves to be heard and understood

For many men, opening up hasn’t always felt safe, easy, encouraged, or even possible. And for some men when they have, they havent had a safe space to land, and they've been met with shame.

Sometimes what’s needed isn’t pressure to talk,
but space, patience, and understanding. Because being a man doesnt have to mean suffering in silence.

This is something worth keeping in mind when you start therapy. The first few sessions may seem harder as you unpack what is going on for you. But once it is laid out, that’s where the work begins to sort through

Healing isn't always comfortable, but that doesn't mean you're doing it 'wrong' or going backwards.
