Being self aware doesn’t always mean healing.

What it can mean is that you’re great at talking about how you feel, while bypassing feeling your feelings.

It’s a way you can skip the emotional labour by keeping things surface level and avoiding feeling anything too deeply. Especially when it’s hurts or makes you feel vulnerable.

Self awareness isn’t a bad thing but intellectualising your feelings has it’s limitations.

It means you never really process your emotions. You just talk your way through them.

That keeps you stuck in your head and disconnected from your body.

Being very self aware but knowing what to do next is quite a combination.
Let me know if you relate ✨

Your Mother Wound could be ruining your friendships.

When a child grows up with a mother who is dismissive and invalidating, it can make that child find adaptive ways to receive love and acceptance.

This is often where people pleasing and perfectionism become ways of feeling seen.

It can lead to patterns of over giving in friendships and always being in the position of the giver.

It can mean relationships feel like there is always underlying conflict or distance because you never feel safe.

It’s a relational pattern being repeated.

You don’t need a course, a gadget, or the “latest program” to regulate your nervous system.

It starts with the everyday basics: noticing when your body needs rest, moving when it asks, and tuning into small safety cues around you.

Regulation is about consistency, not complexity. Start simple. Keep doing it. That’s enough.

❤️Save this post as a reminder of your safety cues for simple nervous system regulation

The essence of therapy is holding more than one truth at the same time.

You can be capable and still overwhelmed.

You can understand yourself and still get reactive.

You can be kind and still need firmer boundaries.

Most people I work with aren’t confused about their lives.

They’ve already done the thinking.

What’s harder is letting the body catch up with what the mind already knows.

Therapy is learning how to stay with all parts of you, especially the bits you usually rush past.

That’s where things actually start to move.

I’m currently accepting new and returning clients in March for 1:1 therapy for a hybrid of online and in-person therapy in St. Albans.

Send me a DM with the word THERAPY to learn more or book your initial consultation via the link in bio.

The healing journey can feel lonely and isolating.

That’s usually because you’re letting go of the people and things that no longer fit.

You don’t have to become so self focused that you forget that we are relational by nature.

It’s about finding different ways to be in connection.

I’m not the therapist for everyone, but I also don’t try to be.

I’m mindful of the clients I work with so I can be sure I can help them and they can make the most out of therapy.

That means not automatically saying yes to everyone. (That’s a bonus of private practice).

Many of the clients I work with are self aware and high functioning.

They tend to be intellectualisers and avoidant of their feelings.

If that sounds like you and you’ve been thinking about therapy, get in touch. (UK & EU only)

People rarely go no contact for small reasons or isolated incidents.
It’s not really anyone else’s place to decide who is right or wrong.
Often in these situations, everyone loses.

26/01/2026

As a people pleaser you need to let people be upset with you.

It’s not a sign that you’re wrong and it doesn’t make you a bad person.

Save this for later when you need a reminder and share it with a friend who needs to hear it ❤️

Because what exactly is a normal childhood?

19/01/2026

High functioning women rarely say I need help. They’re so used to being the one who holds it together that loneliness gets disguised as independence.

At some point, self-reliance stops being empowering and starts being exhausting.

You’re capable, organised, emotionally intelligent, and everyone knows you as the strong one.

But strength can quietly become a way of staying in control instead of staying connected.

When your nervous system learned early that support wasn’t predictable, you adapt. You don’t relax into people. You stay switched on around them.

You help, fix, listen, and manage, even when what you actually want is to exhale and let someone else take the lead for once.

That’s why a lot of high-achieving women don’t struggle with competence, they struggle with receiving.

Letting someone step in can feel awkward, unsafe, or even like you’re asking for too much, so you keep doing it yourself and call it independence.

But a village isn’t built on how useful you are.
It’s built on how safe you feel being seen when you’re not okay.

If this resonates, pause for a moment and notice where you stay strong when you’d rather be supported. That awareness is often the first small shift toward deeper connection.
