Thought about seeing a counsellor, but unsure what it's like? Or had a bad experience with a therapist in the past?

Well, to see if we're a good fit for each other I am offering potential new clients a free introductory session in May. I have limited availability (currently Saturday afternoons) - please contact me for further information either here, on via my website:

I can't wait to hear from you and start working together.

Best,

Good morning :) I've been reflecting a lot on my process, and wanted to share some of that with you. A question that has been percolating in me: What is it I'm putting off doing right now?

The answer right now is this. My Social Media presence, self-advertising. I feel resistant to it. Putting myself out there is scary, it's vulnerable and I worry about getting it wrong. Being 'preachy' when offering thoughts on how to manage Mental Health. Ironically this goes against an important value of mine of trying to break down the stigma of talking about what's important and how we're truly feeling.

So, here's what I'm proposing (and I'd love some input/feedback from you reading this): A series of short videos with themed discussions. Could be a week/fortnight of meeting anxiety, depression, procrastination (hah, maybe I should start with this), grief/loss... whatever you want, if you ask I'll endeavour to create.

Also, Pepper says "Hi!"

Watch this space, and let me know what you think.

Best,
Matthew

Hey! You there, yeah you! What's on your mind that you'd like to talk about? What are you curious to know more about when thinking about your Mental Health, and thoughts on Counselling/Therapy?

I want to create a safe space for open conversations about anything and everything You. World beating you down? Anxious about what's around the corner? Just feeling tired and fed up? Come talk, and let's find out more about ourselves.

This quote came up in one of my personal sessions, and find it too rich, moving, to keep to myself.
