Sometimes what feels “small” to others can feel overwhelming inside.
Reggie maybe feeling stuck — and that experience is real, even if others don't see it.

He needed help, working his way out of this sticky situation

A few quiet minutes between clients.
Feet up, book open, nervous system settling.

Everyone needs time to regulate.
We reset, we breathe, we refill — so we can show up grounded for the next person who walks through the door.

We need to care for ourselves, and its often in small ways.
This is one of mine. 🤍

✨ What’s one small thing you do to reset during your day?

Share it below — you might inspire someone else to pause.

Therapy doesn’t have to be another thing that feels hard to fit in 🤍

Sessions can be flexible around busy lives — whether that’s shift work, family commitments, caring responsibilities, or everything in between.

On the phone, online or face-to-face, the space is still yours: supportive, confidential and focused on what you need.

Because looking after your mental health should work with your life, not against it ✨

I was so ready for a spa day… but somehow ended up on wallpaper duty instead.

Self-care doesn’t always come with candles or a fluffy robe. Sometimes it’s sweaty, messy, and about doing the hard stuff. And sometimes it’s simple things like:

* Setting boundaries
* Saying “no” without guilt
* Taking a space day
* Journaling your thoughts
* Going for a walk
* Making that call you’ve been putting off

Self-care looks different for everyone—and it’s all valid. 💛

What self-care have you done today?

Change is rarely comfortable.
It can feel awkward, unsettling, or even wrong at first.

In therapy, discomfort often shows up before clarity does.
Before confidence. Before relief.

Feeling uncomfortable doesn’t mean something is going wrong.
It often means something new is happening.

Growth asks us to sit with feelings we’ve spent a long time avoiding.
That’s not easy — but it can be meaningful.

Change can be uncomfortable and productive.
Trust the process—even after the groomer 🐾 😂

If today feels heavy,
this is your reminder that REST is productive.
You are allowed to pause.
You are allowed to just be.
And you are not falling behind.

Hi, I’m Sophie. I run Rise Therapy, where I support people navigating stress, anxiety, life transitions, and the moments when everything feels a bit too much.

Whether you’re feeling meh, overwhelmed, or like you’ve lost your sense of direction, I’m here to help.

I’m here to support you — to unravel those thoughts, make sense of things, and help take some of the weight off your shoulders. Therapy isn’t intimidating; it’s about having support as you work towards your goal. No judgement — just a safe space to open up and truly be you.

If you’re thinking about starting therapy or coming back to it, I’m here when you’re ready.

When I started counselling about 10% of my clients were men. Im pleased that I can say now that my client base is 50/50 split 💚

Let's keep talking

3 out of 4 suicides in the UK are by men, according to Movember UK

This statistic is heartbreaking, and a reminder of why we must keep ending the stigma around men’s mental health. At Counselling Directory, our mission is to raise awareness, encourage conversations, and remind everyone that help is available. 💙
