Mother’s Day can be a time of love, appreciation, and connection.
For others, it can bring feelings of grief, loss, or complicated memories.

Today we acknowledge the many different experiences connected to motherhood. However this day feels for you, your experience is valid.

Be gentle with yourself today. 💚

Ahead of International Women’s Day tomorrow I find myself thinking about the many women who have shaped my life.

Some were strong when I needed strength, some showed kindness when I needed compassion, and some have inspired me through the things they’ve done, the paths they’ve taken, and what they’ve achieved in their own lives.

In my counselling work, I’m also reminded every day of the quiet resilience women carry , often while holding so much for others.

To all the women who inspire us in big ways and small , thank you. 💜

If you’d like to share, I’d love to hear about a woman who has inspired you and why

Spring is just around the corner, and there’s something about a sunny day at the beach that reminds us brighter, lighter moments are on their way after a long dark cold winter. ☀️🌊

If the past season has felt heavy and you’ve been thinking about counselling, maybe this is your sign to reach out.

I offer face to face sessions in Bournemouth or online and telephone .

Early morning start and I decided on a different view for my admin today 🌊☕

There’s something about the sound of the waves that makes even admin feel a little lighter. A reminder that we can choose small changes in our environment to support our wellbeing.

Valentine’s Day can bring up joy, reflection, or quiet moments.
Through it all, the most important relationship is with yourself, stay aware of your needs and take care of yourself today

As a counsellor, I often remind clients when relevant, your inner child is still with you and often explore gentle ways to reconnect with and support that younger part of you.

Mine often felt like she wasn’t good enough. She carried more self-doubt than she ever needed to.

How you speak to yourself today matters.

What’s one kind thing you can say to younger you?
