August ~ the Sunday of summer ✨

The seasons keep on moving • people can hold each-others hearts gently • time may slightly ease the pain of loss and grief • we can all benefit from having and experiencing open hearts and minds • love wins • one day at a time • wan fit afore da idder • reconnect with support systems • balance • take your time • 💚 •

These are just a few things swirling around my mind as July turns to August this year and we say goodbye to a very dear friend ❤️‍🩹

I really don’t want the Tirricks to leave this year 🥹 But they will, and the cycle will continue 💙💫

Love to all,
Colleen

Join me for a wild flower walk along the road at Muckle Roe on Sunday. See which wild flowers (& grasses) you can spot and identify. Take photos, make a list or sketches of what you find…🌾🌸🌼🌤️📸📝

The walk length will be a maximum of 2 miles at a gentle pace and along a road. Dress for comfort and the weather on the day and bring along a bottle of water or flask of tea/coffee. I will provide homemade scones with jam & cream to each person who attends on return to the carpark. I will also provide a small notebook for you record your findings in if you wish. If you would like to bring any of your own coloured pencils, pens, etc. you are welcome to - I will have ordinary lead pencils and ballpoint pens for use as well.

Share knowledge with others and learn and/or compare names of flowers you know, Shetland or otherwise. I have two Shetland Wildflower books which I will bring along for folk to have a look at and identify flowers with.

Cost: £15 per person

Bookings open until Friday at midnight - just get in touch to book a space 🌿🤗

Sorry no pets allowed to join this session 🐾

Child & Adolescent to Parent Violence & Abuse.

A difficult subject. A heart wrenching subject… buts a very real and important subject for those experiencing this within the family dynamic ❤️‍🩹

There are many complex reasons behind this - it’s not just ‘poor parenting’ or a ‘bad child’. It is often a multi-layered and complex dynamic to understand.

The fear for parents/carers in disclosing this is immense as it can so often be misunderstood or judged in an unhelpful way when a child is causing harm. A child the parent loves deeply.

I have been doing a little professional development in this area and feel passionate about supporting anyone through this issue. Having someone to share this with and explore what can be done to help can be life changing 🌿💛

Off to work! 🫶🏼🌿🍂🐚🪶

It’s not for everyone but some of my counselling clients love to bring nature in to their processing and I’m very much here for that if they find it meaningful for where they’re at ✨ I get to share my treasures…and it helps someone else’s soul 🙌🏼

NB: Many like a more traditional route and that is what we do 🤍 It just depends on what people need and want when they come to me. It all matters and is all welcome - there is not right or wrong way to ‘be’ in my counselling space.
