I’m so grateful to receive such thoughtful feedback from a client. It’s always a privilege to be trusted with someone’s therapeutic journey. Every session is a reminder of the courage it takes to show up, open up, and do the work of self-understanding and growth.

If you’re based in or around Leicestershire and are thinking about starting therapy, I currently have limited spaces available. Get in touch to arrange an initial consultation.

As we step into a new month and the darker days of winter, it’s natural to feel your energy shift. Many of us notice our mood dipping, motivation fading, and old habits creeping back in. You’re not alone in that.

It’s a real, seasonal change that affects both mind and body.

This is the perfect moment to pause and set gentle intentions for the weeks ahead. What routines will support your wellbeing? What simple things help you feel grounded?

Maybe it’s a morning walk before work, journaling with a warm drink, checking in with a friend, or making space for therapy.

Small, consistent acts of care become anchors through the winter months.

You don’t need to ‘power through’, you just need to tend to yourself, slowly and intentionally. Let this month be about rhythm, not pressure.

According to the Mental Health Foundation, men are three times more likely to die by su***de than women, yet so many still struggle in silence.

This Men’s Mental Health Awareness Month, I want to speak directly to you: the man who’s always doing, the man who carries, the man who rarely pauses. You don’t have to go through this alone.

In the quiet moments when you wonder if you’re ‘too weak’ to admit you’re not okay, let’s flip the script. Reaching out is strength. Vulnerability is courage. Healing is possible.

As a psychotherapist here in Leicestershire, I specialise in helping men unlock the clarity and resilience that’s already inside you. Together we’ll explore what’s beneath the surface, shift the patterns that keep you stuck, and build the life you’re meant to live.

The end of October invites reflection, a time to pause and ask:

What am I ready to release?

What have I learned?

What deserves more of my energy moving forward?

Just as the seasons shift, so do we. Letting go isn’t a sign of failure, but of growth.

Here’s to closing the month with gentleness, gratitude, and trust in what’s next.

“Fiona helped me discover myself - not perfect, but good enough.”

This simple reflection captures something profound.

We spend so much of our lives chasing perfection - at work, in relationships, in how we “should” be. But real growth often begins when we allow ourselves to be good enough.

In therapy, “good enough” means self-acceptance, compassion, and space to be human.

Thank you for such a lovely message.

Menopause Awareness Day!

Menopause is a natural and significant life transition, but too often, it’s surrounded by silence and misunderstanding.

Around 35.6% of menopausal women may experience depression during this transition. Yet emotional changes are rarely talked about, even though they’re just as real as the physical ones.

Despite its widespread impact, more than 90% of women were never taught about menopause in school, meaning many learn on their own, often after symptoms begin. This lack of education can leave so many feeling confused, isolated, or even ashamed of what their body is naturally doing.

I want to remind every woman: you’re not alone, and you’re not “too much.” This chapter deserves compassion, understanding, and care - not silence.

“Therapy is just talking, it doesn’t change anything.”

This is one of the biggest myths about therapy. While conversation is a key part of the process, therapy is far more than just talking, it’s about being heard. It’s also a guided space where you can:

Explore patterns in your thoughts and behaviours,
Gain deeper self-awareness,
Create real change in the way you feel and live.

Talking therapy isn’t just chatting - it’s purposeful, supported work towards your wellbeing.

Today is World Mental Health Day

A reminder that caring for our mind is just as important as caring for our body.

This year’s theme is about making mental health a universal human right. Too often, stigma or lack of access keeps people from the support they deserve.

Reaching out for help is a sign of strength, not weakness. Let’s keep working together to create a world where mental health support is available to everyone.

How do you prioritise your mental wellbeing each day?

It’s Happiness at Work Week!

Work takes up such a huge part of our lives, and yet many of us struggle with stress, boundaries, or burnout.

True happiness at work isn’t about being positive all the time, it’s about balance, respect, and feeling valued. Setting small boundaries, taking breaks, and recognising achievements can all make a big difference.

This week, ask yourself: What one thing could I change to feel happier at work?

‘I feel I’ve grown on many levels…’

Hearing words like these from a client is such a meaningful reminder of why I do this work.

Growth, healing, and self-discovery look different for everyone, and it’s an honour to walk alongside my clients on their journey.
