I currently have a couple of spaces opened up for counselling sessions.

I work in person in Gosport and Fareham, or I can work with clients based anywhere in the UK either online or over the phone.

I can help with a wide range of issues, such as anxiety, trauma, understanding neurodivergence, anger, grief, and more.

Sessions last 1 hour and cost £55, and although these are normally weekly or fortnightly, I can also accommodate those who need to work around shifts etc.

If you would like to book a free 20-30 minute consultation to see how I might be able to help you, please get in touch.

Just in case anyone needs it, here are the details for Citizens Advice in Gosport and how to book appointments:

I did it - I qualified as a counselling supervisor!

If you are a counsellor looking for a new supervisor then please visit my website www.reefcounselling.com to see if we could be a good match.

I am an integrative supervisor with experience working with a wide variety of clients, particularly those diagnosed or identifying as ND, and serving military and veterans, although I gladly welcome clients from all walks of life.

If you would like to arrange an informal chat about supervision to see if we could be a good fit, then please do get in touch - I'd love to hear from you!

Free mental health drop-in session today in Gosport.

The heating's on and the kettle is warming up - come down see us today if you would like to talk about mental health issues. We're here to help you connect to local services, to help you to make sense of what's going on in life, and most importantly - to listen without judgement.

I'll be here today, Friday 5th Jan until 3pm, so drop by and say hello.

I'm not the biggest fan of winter; I want it to either be snowing for a couple of winter days and about 25°c for the rest of the time with not much in between! I would naturally find it pretty easy to hibernate if it wasn't for the fact that my dogs love a walk no matter what the weather.

I always find that, once we're out, I tend to enjoy it, even if it's cold and raining. Sometimes we just need to find out what will motivate us to do something we otherwise wouldn't do.

What helps you to achieve the things you would tend to avoid?

If you're struggling to answer that and would like to find ways to help motivate you, then why not see if counselling can help you.

Today is World Mental Health Day!

Today is an opportunity to raise awareness of the importance of good mental health, and to help break some of the stigma attached to ill mental health - too many people struggle for us to continue to pretend that mental health issues aren't real, or something that we can just forget about.

* 4-10% of people in England will experience depression in their lifetime
* One adult in six has a common mental disorder
* Mixed anxiety and depression has been estimated to cause one-fifth of days lost from work in Britain

If you are struggling with your mental health then please reach out and see if counselling can help you.

October 2nd 2023 is International Day of Non-Violence.

The statistics around domestic violence in England and Wales are staggering:
* 1.3 million women and 600,000 men are victims of domestic violence each year
* More than 100,000 people each year are at high risk of murder or serious injury due to domestic violence
* 7 women each month are killed by current or former partners in England and Wales
(safelives.org.uk)

Nobody deserves to be abused. Nobody is 'asking for it' or pushed their partner to abuse. Using violence against your partner is never the solution.

If you think you may be in an abusive situation (or you are worried about your own behaviour) and would like support, please reach out. The following are some of the organisations that can help and there are others available online and locally in your area:

We all sometimes need a little bit of pressure in order to keep us motivated, it's what gets us out of bed and off to work, or helps us to meet deadlines; however, too much stress and/or difficulty in managing our response to it, can increase our risk of cardiovascular disease.

By learning to reduce our baseline stress levels and in finding healthy ways to cope when stressful situations do arise, we're far more likely to be able to better manage our heart health. (https://www.bhf.org.uk/)

If you think that you need to find ways to manage and reduce your stress levels, why not get in touch to see if counselling could help you?

What a lovely day to be back at work after a week off! I realise what an enormous privilege it is to do a job I love from a beautiful location.

I'll be back at the Bee-Released Counselling CIC free mental health drop-in session this Friday (15th) 11am to 3pm too, so feel free to stop by if you would like some support with next steps in dealing with mental health issues, if you have questions about issues either you or someone you care about is experiencing, or even if you just want someone to listen.
