Oh my last working day at 9 Kidderminster Road after about 10 years... how sad but exciting! Hope to see you all in our new home...

Oh my last working day has come, it's true,
At Number 9, where friendships grew.
Ten years of laughter, tears, and grace—
So many memories in this space.

From morning chats to cups of tea,
A little world that meant so much to me.
Each corner holds a story dear,
Each hallway echoes voices near.

It’s sad to leave, I won’t pretend,
This chapter feels too quick to end.
But change, it seems, must have its say—
A brand new start is on its way.

Though walls may change and doors be new,
The heart of what we are stays true.
So here’s to smiles and future cheer,
In our new home, just as near.

Hope to see you all very soon—
Under sun or rain or silver moon.
For while I leave this place behind,
The bonds we’ve made will always bind. 💛

✨ A Little Ditty for the Move ✨

New doors open, same warm light,
Different rooms, but hearts as bright.
We’ve moved a street, not far away,
Still here to help you find your way. 💚

🌿 We’re Moving — But Still Here for You! 🌿

We’re delighted to announce that St John’s Counselling is moving to a new home!
From Friday 22nd November, you’ll find us at:
📍 9–11 New Road, Bromsgrove
(Just around the corner from our old base at 9 Kidderminster Road.)

It’s the same friendly, professional team you know and trust — simply in a space that allows us all to grow.

At St John’s Counselling, we believe growth happens together — through listening, reflection, and care.
Our new space has been created with that same purpose: to help you feel safe, supported, and understood.

If you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to get in touch:
📞 Judith – 07399 519876
📞 Dave – 07541 948199

"My philosophy is: What people say about me is none of my business. I am who I am and do what I do. I expect nothing and accept everything. And that makes life easier.
We live in a world where funerals are more important than the deceased, marriage is more important than love, looks are more important than the soul. We live in a packaging culture that despises content."
~ Sir Anthony Hopkins. [48 years of sobriety]

A little reminder today, you can be a therapist and still...

💬 Have opinions
⏰ Switch off out of work
😡 Feel every emotion in existence
🤐 Say the wrong thing sometimes
🫥 Mess up
😵‍💫 Have blind spots
😴 Shut down
😭 Have bad days

Often counselling is seen as a solution to 'fix' people and / or make them perfect - when actually, counselling is about learning to be happy with our full selves and embrace our imperfections.

Counsellors are no different, we are human too, not robots 🤖
