Depression isn’t always obvious. Sometimes it’s exhaustion, sometimes it’s isolation, sometimes it’s not even knowing what you feel. If any of this looks familiar, please know you’re not alone and that it's 100% okay to reach out for help or support even if it's "not that bad".

I planted the seeds for this Cosmos months ago and was beginning to give up hope.

For weeks it grew taller and taller with no sign of any flowers - but look!

It turns out it just needed the rain that we've had recently to help it bloom - it was worth the wait 🌸

This Saturday 27 September between 2-5pm (last entry at 4.20pm) we are holding our next monthly Repair Cafe at Pudsey Community Project - Fartown, Pudsey LS28 8LP.

We will have a team of general/electrical fixers including offering clothes repairs/alterations.
If you have a faulty item we will try and fix it and if you have the parts then we will fit them for free (but please leave a generous donation so we can keep this going!).
Please note, all fixers are volunteers and we can make no promises as to whether things can be repaired!
There will be lovely refreshments available while you wait. Just come along from 2pm.
We also have charity recycling facilities for ink cartridges, foreign coins/notes, watches and electronics so bring along anything that you're not using any more to raise money for charity.
Many thanks for supporting this local initiative every fourth Saturday of the month to bring together the community, impact the environment and try and reduce household costs!

Hurrah - my favourite season has arrived!

I love autumn 🍂🍁

This morning I had an outdoor meeting with my supervisor - a 'walk and talk' session which was as insightful and helpful as always.

I used to go prepared to supervision sessions with everything written down, walking and talking has changed this for me.

I still give some thought to how I would like to spend my supervision, of course, but a few quick bullet points on a scrap of paper in my back pocket is enough, and usually I don't need to refer to them.

The conversation flows in a different way outdoors.

It's got me thinking, as a client would you like to work in this way? Did you even know it was an option?

I'd love to know your thoughts.

I've spent a brilliant few days attending a number of free events at BBC Contains Strong Language - a festival of poetry and spoken word, right on my doorstep in Bradford!

So many amazing performers sharing their moving stories.

Nabeela Ahmed, a writer, multilingual poet and spoken word artist from Bradford, seamlessly uses different languages in her work, explaining that often there isn't a direct translation to describe a feeling.

It can be difficult to find the right words to describe our experiences. While we may not have access to multiple languages like Nabeela, we can still use creativity to express how we feel.

Thank you to all the artists and performers involved in this event. Bradford you really are a City of Culture.

It can be easy to take where you live for granted.

We've just got back from a mini break with friends and didn't travel further than 35 miles from home.

It's always nice to see your home county through the eyes of visitors and appreciate just how lovely it is, even in the wind and rain!

Can anyone identify where we are?

Just having a few days away catching up with friends, so my out of office is on.

I'll reply to any messages when I'm back on Wednesday 17th.

Here's hoping for sunshine! 🤞😎

Did you know that as well as face to face appointments, I also offer online and telephone counselling sessions?

I work this way so I can offer more flexibility to my clients.

I appreciate that your circumstances may make attending in person difficult, for a variety of reasons.

It's important to me that my clients feel comfortable wherever they choose to be.

If you've been thinking about counselling support let's have a chat and see how we can work together.

You can message me here, just check out the details in my bio.

💙 I love it if you could share my post too.
