Client reviews are so helpful, for people to share their direct experience of working with me. I'm so deeply grateful to each person who takes the time to leave me a review or testimonial, it really does help other potential clients to get a feel for how I can support them.

April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month. This month, and every month, we stand in solidarity with survivors of sexual assault. We honor their strength, listen to their stories, and amplify their voices. Together, we can create a world where everyone feels safe, respected, and heard. It’s time to break the silence, educate, and advocate for change. Let’s work towards a future where sexual violence is no longer tolerated, and survivors are supported with the care and justice they deserve.

I've just created a short video for clients to find how to get to Cathy Chiplen Compassionate Therapies, where to park, and how to come round the side of the house into the back garden to access my Treatment Cabin. I see a lot of clients on their first appointment looking a bit nervous as they come into the garden so I thought I would create something that can at least take that bit of anxiety out of the process. Hopefully making this as accessible as possible. The ambient wind and background traffic noises are a there, but not bad for a first attempt.

Today is Say Their Name Day.

For families whose babies or children have died, their name is not a painful reminder.
It is love.
It is identity.
It is proof they were here.

When we say their name, we acknowledge their life, however brief.
We honour their place in their family.
We show that they matter.

If you feel able, you are invited to share your baby or child’s name in the comments. We will hold each one with care 🤍

And if today feels heavy, that’s okay too. You can read names quietly. You can whisper them at home. You can light a candle. You can say them in your heart.

Because saying their name keeps their love visible.

This is my happy face after a day of doing my own personal therapy this morning, and then supporting some wonderful clients this afternoon. I love it when I have the opportunity to deeply engage with clients & support them through a combination of physical holistic therapies & listening to what’s arising for them. Absolutely loving that I can put my skills & expertise to good use & really hold deep space for my clients.
