I am a registered Person Centred Counsellor, which I integrate with Brain Working Recursive Therapy, a powerful tool for rewiring the brain's familiar responses, often requiring only a few sessions to make a considerable difference.Take a look at bwrt.org I have been practising for 6 years in association with http://www.oxford-street-therapy-centre.co.uk where I completed my training and am now offering a mobile clinic.

I just love the perception in this poem. Metaphorically, it makes me think of a thousand moments, and a hundred beautiful souls I've been lucky to meet, know and work with 🌈

Therapy has had to move with the times. You should feel heard, trusted, valued and believed. You can expect to be challenged, but always with respect and without judgement.

Sometimes I meet clients who have experienced counselling through school, work or the NHS, and they’re surprised by how different it feels when they choose a therapist who is the right fit for them.

Therapy doesn’t have to mean sitting in a stuffy office after navigating a reception team. It can be more informal — outdoors, walking, or simply in a space where you feel comfortable and at ease.

Reaching out can be the hardest part. The right therapist should help you feel safe, respected and able to be yourself.

Your Energy Speaks First

Your energy introduces you before you speak.
I notice this in myself. I notice it in my clients.

When I’m worried or uncertain, I can feel my energy vibration quicken, like a stuck gear, grating and struggling to move smoothly.

But when I’m relaxed, grounded and feel safe, it’s completely different. It’s like a little bumblebee is guiding me along. 🐝

And I notice the difference in how people respond too. People seem to smile in my direction more. There’s more warmth, more eye contact, more ease.

I believe we really do pick up on each other's energy, not necessarily in a mystical sense, but through thousands of tiny signals: tone, movement, facial expression, nervous-system states and presence.

Sometimes, before someone even speaks, something in us already knows how they feel.

There's so much communicate that happens before we’ve even spoken a word.

Do you ever sense this in yourself?

Do you say sorry a lot? If you feel in the way/you've interrupted someone /are too much?

I notice this so often in clients who’ve grown up with intense, unpredictable or emotionally demanding parents.

They’ll say sorry before they cry.
Sorry before telling me something really important.
Sorry for taking up space.
Sorry for having feelings.

And often, there’s nothing at all to apologise for.

Sometimes that little word tells a much bigger story. One where they learned that their needs or feelings might be too much, inconvenient, or likely to provoke a reaction of anger or irritation.

So start by noticing it.

Pause when you hear yourself say sorry and gently ask: What am I apologising for?

You don’t have to change anything. Awareness comes first and that's brilliant :)

Sometimes that pause is the beginning of waking up to an old survival response, and slowly learning that you’re allowed to take up space, have feelings and simply be.

Sundays are often seen as a family day — a time for getting together, catching up and being surrounded by the people we love.

But that can also create pressure to be available and sociable, even when what we really need is some time to ourselves.

Psychologically, taking time out isn't selfish. Our nervous systems need periods of rest and lower stimulation, especially when life feels busy or emotionally demanding. Time out can help us reset, recharge and return with more capacity.

So if you need a quiet Sunday, it's okay to say no. You don't have to feel guilty for protecting your own energy.

Rest is a need, nothing more.

Take time to breathe, and let yourself reset each day if only for a few minutes

Men who hate therapy.

Every now and then, a man walks through my door who really doesn’t want to be there.

Sometimes someone who loves him has pressured him into it. Sometimes it’s a last resort. Either way, he’s often arriving with all sorts of thoughts about what therapy is going to be like.

He expects me to judge him.
To be put off by his honesty.
By his apathy.
By the things he thinks he shouldn’t be saying out loud.

And honestly, it’s such a privilege to slowly build that trust and get to know the person underneath it all — how he became who he is, what he’s carried, and what’s brought him to this point.

I read something today while I was waiting for a prescription at the chemist.

Every two hours, a man in the UK ends his own life.

Every two hours.

Yes. Every 2 hours.

We all love the idea of the knight on the white horse.

Strong. Capable. Protective. Getting on with it.

But are we really interested when he falls off the horse?

Do we notice men's mental health within our families and friendship groups in the same way we notice when women aren't okay?

Often, we don't.

Anger, irritability, shutting down and withdrawing can be the ways men show that they're struggling — particularly when they've spent a lifetime being conditioned to keep going, stay strong and not talk about how they feel.

That doesn't mean they don't need support.

It means sometimes we have to learn to recognise the signs.

It wasn't okay 50 years ago.

And it definitely isn't okay now.

So, to the men who think therapy isn't for them:

You're welcome here.
You're worthy of support.
You don't have to have the right words.
You don't even have to particularly want to be here.

And you only need to get back on that white horse if — and when — you choose to.

Undiagnosed ADHD or AuDHD can look like a lot of things…here's a few.....😳😬

Being told you're lazy, disorganised or lacking motivation when actually you're completely overwhelmed.

Not reaching out or replying to anyone for weeks because you just can't.

Putting things off for weeks, then suddenly doing them all in one mad burst under pressure and feeling tired for days after. Plus the shame of having left it all so late.

Forgetting why you walked into a room, losing your keys, missing messages… but remembering something someone said 15 years ago!

Starting hobbies with loads of enthusiasm and then losing interest a few weeks later. (But it's ok another one will come along soon).

Knowing exactly what you should be doing but feeling physically unable to make yourself do it.

Being wiped by things that seem really easy for other people.

Overthinking conversations. Worrying you've upset someone. Taking criticism really personally.

Feeling like your brain is constantly pinging from one thought to another.

Getting completely absorbed in something you love and suddenly realising three hours have passed.

Finding noise, crowds, textures, lights, people really overwhelming or massively irritating. Or both.

Needing routine but also struggling to stick to one.

Being brilliant at some things and completely hopeless at others, which can be incredibly confusing.

Struggling with understanding /communication and wondering why it seems so simple for others.

And perhaps most importantly, spending years thinking "What the f**k is wrong with me, and why does everyone seem to have a life instruction book that I didn't get"

ADHD and AuDHD don't look the same in everyone, and none of these things on their own mean someone has ADHD or autism. But if you're recognising yourself in quite a few of them, it might be worth exploring.

And having an assessment doesn't mean medication.

You don't have to take medication if you don't want to.

It can help you be a bit kinder to yourself, stop seeing everything as a personal failing, and start finding strategies that actually work for your brain.

Sometimes you've been trying really hard without understanding what you're working with.

Tired of blaming the world/yourself /both? Just understanding we're all a combination of wizards and muggles can massively help. Get to know who you are and love that, hone your groove and honour it. You're probably incredible if you only knew how to apply yourself ✨

On Meds for MH and feeling worse during this heatwave?? 🥵🫠🫨

Some mental health meds can increase the risk of heat-related illness during a heatwave by affecting the body's ability to regulate temperature or stay hydrated.

This includes:
• Antidepressants (some SSRIs and tricyclics)
• Antipsychotics
• Lithium
• Benzodiazepines (some anti-anxiety medications)

Take extra care by:
• Drinking water regularly
• Replacing electrolytes (available online or most chemists/supermarkets)
• Staying in the shade or a cool environment if you can
• Wearing loose, comfy kit
• Get medical advice urgently if you develop confusion, dizziness, fainting, or signs of heatstroke or if you feel a profound/sudden change in your MH levels

Family secrets teach everyone in the system that protecting appearances matters more than speaking the truth or honouring genuine pain.
But isn't family meant to be the place where we feel safest to be ourselves? A place where truth is met with compassion rather than silence, shame, or fear.
