🤍 A little update...

When I started building my private practice last October, I never imagined I'd be writing this so soon.

I've been reluctant to introduce a wait list because I know how important it is to access support when you feel ready to reach out. However, thanks to the trust, recommendations, and support I've received over the past few months, I've reached a point where a wait list is now needed for new clients.

Whilst I may not have immediate availability, you're still very welcome to get in touch and join the wait list. I'll be in contact as soon as a space becomes available.

Thank you to everyone who has trusted me, recommended me, and supported my work. I'm incredibly grateful. 🤍

As we go through life, we're often given stickers that tell us who we are.

The good one.
The strong one.
The troublemaker.
The know-it-all.
The difficult one.
The sensitive one.

At first, they're just words. But when we hear them often enough, we start to believe them.

Over time, those stickers can become our identity. We see ourselves through them. We make decisions because of them. We carry them into our relationships, our work, and the way we move through the world.

Sometimes we challenge those labels and they peel away easily.

Others take a little more work.

And some leave a sticky residue behind, a reminder of the stories we've been told about ourselves for years.

But those labels don't have to define you.

Together, we can explore where they came from, whether they belong to you, and whether they're stories you still want to carry.

You get to reclaim the labels.
You get to rewrite the narrative.
You get to decide what belongs.

And when you're ready, you get to create new stickers of your own.

Brave.
Capable.
Worthy.
Enough.

What would you write on yours? 🤍

When I encourage clients to sit with their feelings, they often look at me and ask, "But what does that actually mean?"

I think many of us have been taught that difficult emotions are something to get rid of as quickly as possible. We distract ourselves, stay busy, overthink, scroll, work harder, or tell ourselves we'll deal with it another day.

But feelings don't disappear simply because we don't want them there.

I often think of emotions like waves.

When a feeling first arrives, it can be uncomfortable, but it's usually manageable. Like standing at the edge of the sea and feeling a wave wash around your ankles. You notice it. You feel it. You allow it to be there.

The difficulty comes when we spend our energy trying to outrun every wave.

The wave doesn't stop coming. Another follows behind it, and then another. Over time, stress, sadness, disappointment, fear, frustration and worry can begin to build on top of one another until eventually we're hit by something that feels overwhelming.

This is why sitting with your feelings isn't about dwelling on them or making yourself feel worse.

It's about giving yourself permission to notice what's there, with curiosity rather than judgement.

To acknowledge what you're feeling.

To make space for it.

To trust that emotions do what waves naturally do.

They rise.

They peak.

And, when we're willing to let them, they pass. 🌊

What feeling might be asking for a little space and attention today?

Anyone else notice they're stuck in the Drama Triangle sometimes? 🤍

I think most of us can recognise ourselves in all three roles at different times.

đź’š When I'm in Rescuer mode, I might...

• Jump in and try to fix things
• Offer advice before I've really listened
• Take responsibility for other people's feelings
• Struggle to say no
• Feel frustrated when my help isn't wanted

Sometimes it comes from kindness.
Sometimes it comes from anxiety.
Often it's a bit of both.

🤍 When I'm in Victim mode, I might...

• Feel stuck and unsure what to do
• Focus on everything that isn't working
• Wish someone would tell me what the answer is
• Need to find a more "adult" adult
• Feel powerless to change things
• Forget what I do have control over

This isn't weakness.
It's often what happens when we're overwhelmed.

🤎 When I'm in Persecutor mode, I might...

• Get critical or impatient
• Feel frustrated with other people
• Focus on what's wrong
• Become defensive
• Blame others (or myself)

Underneath that frustration there's often hurt, fear, or a need that isn't being expressed.

✨ The interesting thing is that we don't stay in one role.

The helper can become frustrated and critical.

The overwhelmed person can become angry.

The critic can feel guilty and rush in to help.

We can move around the triangle without even realising it.

The goal isn't to judge ourselves when we notice it.

It's simply to pause and ask:

"What do I need right now?"

Because awareness creates choice. 🤍

Feeling really lucky that this work lets me step into so many different rooms and so many different worlds 🤍

Because therapy doesn’t have to look like the stereotypical lying-on-a-couch scene from films.

I think the best therapy happens when the space feels right for you, not when you’re trying to fit yourself into what therapy is “supposed” to look like.

There’s no one right way to do counselling.

Johari’s Window is something that comes up a lot in my counselling work, and it’s a model I often share with clients to help them better understand themselves, their relationships and the way they connect with others.

It explores what is known and unknown within our communication, emotions and self-awareness through four areas:

• Open Self - the parts of us known by both ourselves and others

• Hidden Self - the parts we keep private

• Blind Self - things others may notice that we may not yet recognise ourselves

• Unknown Self - parts of ourselves still waiting to emerge

Through self-disclosure and feedback, the Open Self grows, helping us build deeper connection, healthier communication and greater self-awareness.

In counselling, exploring these areas can help people better understand their patterns, relationships, emotional responses and sense of self in a safe and supportive space.

The goal isn’t perfection. It’s awareness, understanding and growth 🤍

With GCSE's starting this week whether this is your first time, a resit, or something you’re coming back to later in life… take a breath.

This doesn’t measure who you are, your worth, your personality, or everything you’re capable of.
You’ve got this. 💫

All behaviour is communication.

The child bouncing off the walls and not listening.
The one who melts down over something small.
The one who suddenly goes quiet and says “I’m fine.”

Or even the adult who snaps, shuts down, or walks away.

It’s not always about attitude or defiance.

Often, it’s overwhelm.
Too many feelings.
Not enough skills (yet) to handle them.

It’s easy to jump straight to:
“Stop that”
“Calm down”
“What’s wrong with you?”

But a more helpful question can be:
“What’s going on underneath this?”

This doesn’t mean we ignore boundaries or accept hurtful behaviour.

It means we respond in a way that actually helps.

Because when someone feels understood and more settled, things start to shift.

Understanding builds safety. And safety is where change begins.
