Canopy Connections

Canopy Connections Relationship and Individual Counselling. Nature and Forest Therapy. Group Support. Connection is key. To ourselves, to each other, and to nature.

My name is Jennifer Ochoa and I am a:
- Registered Relationship Counsellor
- Trauma Group Facilitator qualified in Planning, Delivery and Training to Groups
- Certified Wilderness First Aider
- Certified Nature and Forest Therapy Guide

My background is Adult Nursing and I have a degree in Health Science. But if you want to know about the things that really matter:
- I love classic rock music and climbing trees
- I cry every time I watch Amelie and I get angry when I go on protest marches
- I have rats as pets and I am scared of spiders
- I write anon blogs about human rights and I sometimes ask my children for advice
- I love people and I am fascinated with the dynamics between us
- I have almost one hundred houseplants and I will likely give you a cutting

I believe that growth is not only possible, but inevitable. I can help you connect to the areas of your life that you'd like to grow and help you discover how you might want to nurture yourself in order to achieve your growth goals. As ever, to the trees...

Lay on my back and stare at the same sky as those in Palestine do, their sky is scarred daily by growing orbs of billowing smoke which only
means one thing...more murder of their people.
◼️
Their blue sky etched with F-35s streaking across their sky targetting them using lasers
built in my city.
◼️
I have been ripping the world at the seams and calling everyone in... but it's still too quiet.
◼️
It is still TOO QUIET.

I've been observing the world my whole life. The last two months in particular, and not once have I ever experienced this level of incongruence from the mental health world.
💔
What is empathy without action?
❤️‍🩹
I have been vocal on my personal accounts. I do not worry if I lose friends, family, or clientèle because our humanity is, SHOULD be the barometer that we gauge ourselves with and I will never quiet this part of myself, in any aspect of my existence as a human being of this earth.
💞
I stand for ceasefire and a free Palestine.
❤️🖤🤍💚
I will not be quiet.

Friday arrives, I linger at the window and at the first flash of blue, I run to the garden and let my skin grab a fleeting yellow beam and gather the vivid colours with my eyes.

Two minutes taken, but reset for the day.

Sun making its way through the mighties, warming my face.
☀️
Watching the bumblebees going along their way, whipping up little whirlwinds of dust in their wake.
🍂
The breeze tossing my hair and bringing with it scents of spring blooms.

I could sit here forever.

Winter Solstice of the North is here and the beginning of Yule, where the sun crawls along the horizon at its lowest and the night stretches as long as it can. The longest night of the year.

It's a time for anyone and everyone to really notice what nature is doing, what it's telling us, what its teaching us if only we stop to feel its expressions even when it's darkness is at its most deep.
🥀
Standing at the edge of transition is both frightening and thrilling.
🍃
Earth's cycle is letting you know its time to contemplate turning towards the coming light.
Soon, it will be time to grow...

The last passion flower in my garden, bathing in the fading snippet of sunshine this afternoon.
☀️
Passion flower has been traditionally used in herbal medicine for alleviating anxiety, difficulties sleeping, stress, and to increase focus...
💜
I think I've already felt some of these benefits just by spending some time with it and enjoying its existence.

Hi, I'm Jenni and would like to introduce myself again (it's been a spell...)
I live in Scotland and I'm a registered Relationship Counsellor with a small private practice.
🍒
I also work as a counselling support worker and group facilitator in a Violence Against Women and Girls charity.

I'm a certified Forest Bathing and Nature Therapy Guide with the ANFT and I'm currently training to be a clinical counselling supervisor.
🌳
I like to keep busy, I'm always learning, and I'm a constant explorer.
🧭
One of my favourite places to be is high up in the trees, with some paints or a book, or just with my own thoughts and the company of the earth and it's often unnoticed inhabitants.
🐾
Exploring our world, both inner and outer, is crucial for authentic living.

Hibiscus, another heart flower from my youth in Hawaii, can boost the immune system and can prevent cell damage caused by free radicals in the body.
🌺
This could decrease the risk of developing some significant health complications and also decreases inflammation.
💗
Hibiscus tea contains antioxidants, such as anthocyanins...basically, great stuff to make a brew from!
