🌼 6 Ways to Boost Your Self-Esteem 🌼

Low self-esteem can make it hard to see your worth, but small, intentional steps can shift how you see yourself — and CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy) can help guide that change.

✨ Try these CBT-inspired tips:
1️⃣ Learn how to say “no” — setting boundaries builds self-respect.
2️⃣ Be kind to yourself — challenge that inner critic with compassion.
3️⃣ Recognize your weaknesses — awareness is growth, not failure.
4️⃣ Improve your strengths — notice and celebrate what you do well.
5️⃣ Get moving — physical activity boosts mood and confidence.
6️⃣ Express yourself more — your voice and feelings matter.

💭 How CBT helps:
CBT teaches you to recognize unhelpful thoughts and reframe them into balanced, realistic ones. Over time, this builds confidence, self-compassion, and a more positive self-image.

🌷 You don’t have to navigate this alone — therapy can help you build a kinder inner voice and stronger sense of self.

✨ If you’re ready to start improving your self-esteem, reach out today to learn how CBT can support you.

If you're trapped in overthinking today, here's a quick reminder.....

24/10/2025

*Is overthinking keeping you stuck?** 🧠

That mental loop of "what ifs" and worst-case scenarios isn't helping you solve problems—it's keeping you from living your life.

Overthinking often feels productive, but it's actually a form of avoidance. Your brain thinks if it analyzes enough, it can prevent bad things from happening. But here's the truth: most of what we worry about never happens.

**Here's what you can do instead:**

✨ **Notice the pattern** – Awareness is the first step. When you catch yourself spiralling, simply acknowledge it: "I'm overthinking right now."

✨ **Set a worry timer** – Give yourself 10 minutes to think it through, then move on to action or something else.

✨ **Ask yourself**: Is this thought helpful? Is it true? What would I tell a friend in this situation?

✨ **Ground yourself** – Use your five senses to come back to the present moment. What can you see, hear, touch right now?

Overthinking is a habit, and like any habit, it can be changed. CBT gives you practical tools to break the cycle and reclaim your mental energy.

**You deserve peace of mind.** 💙

🌍 World Mental Health Day 💚

Today is a reminder that mental health matters for everyone, everywhere.

As a CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy) therapist, I’m passionate about helping people understand the connection between their thoughts, emotions, and actions.
Small shifts in how we think can lead to powerful changes in how we feel and live.

✨ On this World Mental Health Day, take a moment to check in with yourself:

What’s one kind thought you can offer yourself today?

What’s one small action that supports your wellbeing?

Remember: seeking help is a sign of strength, not weakness. You don’t have to struggle alone — support and change are always possible. 💬💚

✨ “What if it’s not you, but your beliefs?” ✨

Sometimes, the harshest critic we face lives in our own minds. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) helps us notice the unhelpful thoughts and beliefs that shape how we feel and act.

CBT isn’t about “thinking positive” — it’s about learning to challenge patterns like:

“I’m not good enough.”

“If I fail once, I’ll always fail.”

“People must think I’m weak.”

By identifying and reshaping these beliefs, you can create space for new perspectives, healthier coping, and a stronger sense of self.

💭 Change your thoughts, and your world begins to shift.

🍁 September hits different, doesn’t it? Back-to-school chaos, work piling up, darker evenings… it’s a lot all at once.

A few little CBT-inspired reminders:
✨ Your thoughts aren’t facts. Catch those “I’ll never keep up” moments and swap them for “One thing at a time.”
✨ Shrink the to-do list—one small win is better than overwhelm.
✨ Rest is productive too. A cup of tea, a walk, or 10 minutes of nothing counts.

You don’t need to have it all together this month. You just need some gentle strategies to carry you through. 💛

What is Health Anxiety?
Health anxiety happens when worries about illness become overwhelming—even when medical reassurance shows there’s no serious problem. It often leads to repeated checking, Googling symptoms, or seeking constant reassurance, which keeps the anxiety cycle going.

How CBT Can Help
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is highly effective for health anxiety. It helps you:

Understand the cycle of worry and reassurance

Challenge unhelpful thoughts about health

Reduce checking behaviours

Build confidence in listening to your body without fear

With CBT, it’s possible to break free from the anxiety loop and regain peace of mind.

✨ If this sounds familiar, reach out today to learn how CBT can support you in moving forward.

Depression says “do nothing.”
CBT says: start small.

✨ Make your bed.
✨ Step outside for 5 minutes.
✨ Eat something nourishing — simple things like eating well can have a big impact.
✨ Notice a negative thought & ask: “Is there another way to see this?”

Little actions → small wins → real change. 💛

Depression thrives in isolation and inertia. You don’t need to win the marathon today—just take the next step on the path.
