Being able to label your emotions is one of the best things you can do to improve your mental health.

In my work with clients, it’s quite common that people struggle to identify & communicate the emotion they are feeling.
In order to move forward with a challenge & learn more about ourselves, we need to be able to process the feelings & emotions we have & putting your feelings into words makes them easier to cope with.

For example:
- Rating your emotions, such as anger on a scale of 1-5 can reduce your heart rate & help calm your nervous system.
- Describing your emotions when dealing with intense emotions increases your courage in facing it.
- Giving an emotion a name or label, like “that’s sadness” or “this is fear” decreases the activity in your amygdala in your brain which is where your fight-or-flight response comes from.

The next time that you’re feeling overwhelmed by your emotions, try using a feelings wheel (above) & giving your emotion a name & a score (1-5).
Learning how to treat yourself with greater compassion - no matter what you’re feeling — is one of the most important happiness skills there is 💚

Talking therapies can help you explore your feelings & identify emotions in a safe & calm space that enables you to gain a better understanding of yourself & can positively increase your self-confidence & self-esteem.

If it feels like the right time for you to focus on you & to explore your feelings & emotions and any challenges or concerns you may have, why not get in touch with me for a free 15 minute chat to see how we could work together.

January is widely recognised as Self-Love Month, it gives you time to focus on your mental, emotional, & physical well-being as a new year begins, encouraging acts like setting boundaries, practicing self-compassion, & building healthy habits.
This doesn’t mean setting resolution’s or big ambitious goals & putting additional pressure on ourselves, it’s an opportunity to really concentrate on ‘you’ & what you need to feel more content.

Self love isn’t selfish - it’s necessary! 💚

Only 40% of people struggling with mental health recieve professional help, not because help doesn’t work but because stigma still exists.

Remember - it’s ok, not to be ok.

Talking therapy encourages individuals to examine their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, leading to a deeper understanding of themselves and their challenges.  
By providing a safe & confidential space to explore your thoughts, feelings, & behaviours with a trained professional gives you a better understanding of your challenges, develops coping mechanisms, & can make a positive change to your life.

Gentle reminders for Christmas Week…
🎄Not every thought has to be solved immediately.
🎄 One awkward moment doesn’t define you.
🎄 It’s not your job to manage everyone’s emotions.
🎄 You don’t have to earn rest.
🎄 You’re allowed to say no.
🎄 You can pause, breathe, and reply later.

Remember that talking can help - Therapy can offer a calm, supportive space to talk things through, understand what’s weighing you down, & help you find your sparkle again — in your own time, & in your own way.

Be gentle with yourself this season. You deserve care, connection, & moments of peace. Scroll through the above for some gentle reminders…💚🎄

The permission slip you need this December! 📝🎄✨

It’s so easy to get swept up in the festive frenzy. The pressure to buy, bake, wrap, attend, take part, say ‘yes’! It can all frankly be exhausting.

So here’s a gentle reminder that you can grant yourself the grace of a slower pace. Choose ease over exhaustion, & being present over perfection.

Your energy is the most precious gift you can offer yourself & others, so use it wisely🎁

Let this season meet you exactly where you are, not where you feel pressured to be 💚

Don’t forget - it’s you’re Christmas too 😊🎄

The four attachment styles are secure, anxious, avoidant, & disorganised. These patterns of behavior & emotional response develop from early experiences with parents & other caregivers & influence how individuals form & maintain relationships as adults. A secure style is associated with healthy, balanced relationships, while the insecure styles (anxious, avoidant, & disorganised) are linked to more difficulties, such as fear of abandonment or emotional distance.

It is believed that the secure attachment is the most common style, with estimates of around 50-65% of children & adults having this attachment style. The remaining population has insecure attachment styles, including avoidant (around 15-25%) & anxious/preoccupied (around 5-11%), with disorganised attachment being more common in some disadvantaged populations.

Counselling can help with attachment styles by providing a safe space to explore early life experiences, increasing self-awareness of patterns, & building healthier relationship skills like communication & boundary setting. Through techniques like inner child work, counselling helps you process past wounds & develop coping mechanisms to foster a more secure attachment style in their current relationships.
It helps to:
💚 Increases self-awareness: helps you identify your specific attachment style & how it impacts your current behaviours & emotions in relationships.
💚 Explores root causes: By examining early childhood experiences with caregivers, you can gain insight into the origins of your attachment patterns.
💚 Heals past wounds: Therapies like trauma focused therapy & inner child work help you process & heal from past experiences that may have led to an insecure attachment style.
💚 Develops new skills: You can learn to communicate more effectively, set & maintain healthy boundaries, & regulate your emotions.

Not everything is always as it seems!

A recent episode of I’m a Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here
offered a powerful, raw moment of live television that highlighted how adeptly many men conceal their pain, a situation where everyone believed a person was happy & thriving, only for him to step away, alone, & break down in tears, not wanting anyone to know.

He looked happy and was smiling then once alone, broke down in tears.
Men are masters at hiding pain. This moment was a reminder: appearances can deceive!
👉 Don’t wait for a crisis. Text your mate. Call your brother. Check in with a male colleague.

Check in. Ask how he really is.
Because a simple conversation can make a significant difference 💚
