💑 What makes a relationship truly thrive?

A healthy relationship feels like a team effort. It’s built on trust, respect, and communication, where both of you support each other’s dreams and share plenty of laughs along the way. 💛 There’s kindness, compromise, and fun, making challenges easier to tackle together—it’s like having your favourite co-adventurer in life!

If you’d like to strengthen your relationship, start by exploring your feelings openly with your partner. 🗣️ Make time for each other, show appreciation, and really listen. 👂 Be willing to compromise, try to see things from your partner’s perspective, and address conflicts calmly.

If you’d like some individual space with me to explore your friendship or relationship and find ways to connect more deeply, I’m here to help.

💌 Contact me via WhatsApp or Messenger to arrange a free consultation call or book a counselling session.

Have you ever noticed how good it feels when someone really listens to you—not just hears your words, but truly understands what you mean? That’s the power of active listening.

It’s more than nodding along or waiting for your turn to speak; it’s about connection, empathy and being genuinely present with another person.

Active listening is a bit like being a conversation detective—tuning in to what’s said and what’s felt, noticing tone, emotion and pauses, and showing that you value the person in front of you. When you feel heard in this way, something shifts inside: you start to make sense of your own thoughts and emotions differently.

That’s exactly the kind of space I aim to create in counselling. I’m not a silent observer; I work alongside you, exploring your experiences together and supporting you to understand what’s really going on beneath the surface.

If you’d like to experience counselling where you’re truly listened to, I offer in-person sessions in my cosy private counselling room in Birchington (and a cuppa tea provided if wanted 😊—see image!) as well as online video counselling across the UK. I currently have weekday daytime availability.

You can message me on WhatsApp at 07841 954337 or email me@angelawratten.com to get started.

I’m winning at life... Well, this morning I am 😉

Came back from a session this morning and there was a cup of frothy hot chocolate ready and waiting, courtesy of the in-house barista (is that the right term for a hot chocolate maker?).

What are you doing for World Mental Health Day?

It’s not too late to do something kind for yourself, and maybe for someone else too, today.... because you matter .... you really do 💛
