Willow Therapy Tring

A nurturing confidential space. Offering Counselling for Adults Children Teens Couples and Families. Willow Therapy is unique. Aling with Parent support sessions.

We are a private service located in Tring. We offer a haven of tranquillity tucked away off the bustling Tring High street. My aim is to offer emotional and holistic support to clients when life becomes challenging. People approach Willow Therapy knowing that they are entering a calming nurturing and safe environment. We offer counselling to adults children teens couples and families. The room is beautifully furnished to offer comfortable seating within a non clinical room. Working with children and adults we can use creative play ranging from dolls houses, soft toys, games and creative arts to natural stones and crystals. We work within the many areas of mental health and wellbeing. Working integratively we access Mindfulness, CBT and a psychodynamic approach to support clients. Willow has a small team of highly experienced and qualified counsellors who are dedicated to continued learning in order to provide best practice. We currently offer Room, zoom and telephone and sessions. When working I often draw on my past roles as a clinical practitioner specialising in palliative care and working with families as well as my work within holistic settings. I originally trained as a clinical aromatherapist and neuromuscular practitioner going on to teach. I then started my journey into counselling adding Family therapy and then my supervisor Diploma to support other counsellors in their work. Willow offers a high standard of support in a beautiful space. I'm proud to be the founder of a business that offers support to a growing local community taking GP and private referrals to strengthen mental health awareness. All counsellors are BACP affiliated and fully DBS checked and insured.

Audacity ❤️
I'm sat reflecting on this word

It carried negative meaning as a child
How dare you have the Audacity!!

Yet here I'm reflecting today
As I sit 10 years after my mothers death
My Mother had Audacity in bucket loads
She went for jobs that were high up
She aimed high in all she did
She pushed limits and lived fast
She travelled far and wide
Meeting incredible people
She had volumes of Audacity ❤️

My Daughter
My incredible daughter has Audacity
I remember her going for an internship
When she was at college!
She got up at 5am did her shift at work
Then got a taxi to the train station
And a train to the other end of London
In Pekham she met Maria a designer
Who asked her what Uni she studied at

My daughter replied Bravely
I'm not at Uni but I'll do a better job
And I'm a good learner
Audacity right there ❤️
And she got the internship
The rest is history she learned so much

Sometimes we need Audacity
To grow To learn To move forwards

My Daughter looks like my mother
In many ways they have similar drive
I see it as an oserber of them both
Strong women forging their way forwards

My Daughter in law has Audacity too
She stands tall and has incredible drive
In the face of adversity and illness
She still pushes forward and has grown
Into a phenomenal woman to watch

So here's to Audacity ❤️
Grab it and own it by the bucket load
Don't see it as a negative but embrace it
Here's to my Mother and all that Audacity
She was the Queen of Audacity ❤️ 😍 💖

Thank you for leading the way ❤️

04/11/2025

Yes YOU ❤️ 😍 💖

What a Beautiful statement ❤️
Your Hand is an extension of your Heart

This left me thinking and reflecting
On how Actions speak louder than words

And also what happens
When Actions don't match words
When we hear someone
Say they will do something
But then the Action isn't carried out
We can be left frustrated or confused

So this beautiful picture
Of helping hands means so much
Do your Actions match your Words

Do you offer a hand to others
And do you offer that same hand
To yourself! ❤️
Are you kind compassionate and caring
To yourself when it's needed ❤️

And are you able to Accept a helping hand
That can be difficult at times for some
Accepting kindness and support from others

A sense of Community is coming together
To support one another ❤️
Leaning into others and also supporting
Community is something that we are loosing
In a world speeding by us with technology

How can you connect with others today
How can you create a sense of Community
And Who are your Community ❤️

As a New week opens up
Remember to pause where you can
And prioritise yourself within the day

Be Gentle and Compassionate
Wherever you can please
And remember that a pause
Can be as small or as large as you choose

It can look like staring out of the window
Looking at Birds flying by above
Or stepping outside feeling the cool air
Sitting with a book by the warm fire
Holding a hot cup of tea in your hands
Standing with your hands in soapy water
Simply allowing yourself to Daydream

The hilarious part of this post ❤️
Auto correct changed Bird to Burd to Turd!
I'm now sat imagining Turds flying above!
On that note Happy Monday 😊
And that clearly shows this is not AI!

I heard Tom Daley in an interview recently
He said:
- If someone knits you something
It means they truly love you - ❤️

I get so much joy from gifting
And each year I knit something
A blanket or a scarf
And yes it takes time
And yes they're all Wonky! ❤️
My children and Grand children
Have recieved these pieces annually

Each one is made with love
But more importantly it's the patience
As I knit I have no choice but to Sit

It's mindfulness in the making ❤️
Each piece has taught me patience
Each piece has offered up pride
Each piece is a part of me as I sit
Each piece is put together with love
Each piece says I prioritise You ❤️

So Thank you Tom
For honouring the Creatives
As we get closer to Christmas
And Creatives start crafting their wares
Please Remember a gift that is handmade
Carries so much more than Love ❤️
It's Time Patience Thought and Care
It's the Priorstising You in the moment

What will you be making this Christmas 🎄
From Food to Cards to Wrapping gifts
It's All a form of Creative Caring ❤️ 😍
Here's to ALL the Creatives out there ❤️

Grief Growth And Grattitude

As I move towards towards November
A significant Date approaches
It's Ten Years since my Mother died
It's Ten years since a Marriage came to end
Two pivotal moments that changed me
Setting me off on an incredible path
Of Grieving Growth and immense Grattitude

Grief is a strange thing
Deeply personal and insular
Turning us inward upon ourselves
It breaks us apart then seals us together
We Grow around our grief as it settles in us

It both shakes our world upside down
Then places us back together differently
We become a new version of ourselves
Covered with cracks flaws and shadows
Encompassing the grief that has become us

And then we simply continue Humaning
Wiser and Stronger in so many ways

One thing that we do well
Is we look for symbols to help us
For me it was Feathers 🪶 and Wings 🪽
Each time I saw a feather I felt it was a sign
Of connection and Love and it felt soothing
Wings became sacred and symbolic

In fact so symbolic 🪽 🪽
That I had my first ever tattoo after Mum died
My daughter came with me as moral support
Secretly she wanted to know if I would faint!

And the hilarious reaction from my eldest son
Weeks later he was chatting happily to me
When he looked down and held out my arm
What the Hell is THIS he shouted
I was suddenly reduced to a child like stutter
Trying to explain my newly etched tattoo
Oh how the tables had turned!!

We Humans cling to symbols at times
Seeing Magpies in numbers for Luck
Or Feathers Wings or Robins
There are many symbols that support us

My Ginko leaf came when a dear friend died
She had offered me a Ginko leaf once
From a tree in her garden in France
When she died I bought a silver Ginko leaf
Not knowing it represented friendship

My Wings symbolised more than angels
They symbolised Growth Freedom and Flight
And yes I did have days when I thought
Oh S**t it doesn't Rub off!!
But I'm forever reminded as I look down
That we all have Wings 🪽 to Fly
It's learning to use them that takes courage ❤️
And I'm Privaledged to work with so many
Who are learning to use their Wings ❤️

To All who are finding their own Wings 🪽
To All who are navigating grief in all it's forms
It does soften and settle as you journey on
You will grow around it and make peace with it
Be Gentle with yourself on the journey ❤️

Loving Jacqueline Hodges
And her fabulous quotes ❤️

I'm back on Zoom working
And in the Pink for October 🎗
It's Breast Cancer Awareness month
Grattitude for all those I've known
And to all those navigating Cancer

Step at a time going forwards
And I'm accessing potential
Whilst sitting I'm doing Admin
All things seated whilst my body settles

Thank you Jacqueline for the reminder
We don't have to be everyone's cup of tea
But it's fabulous being a shot of espresso!

How does healing look for you
Feet up?
Good Food?
Cosy clothes?
Or just getting out of Bed?

I'm learning to press Pause
After a long stint on steroids
My cheek bones are finally returning!

It's interesting how we see ourselves
Having an additional layer of water
All around my face has been uncomfortable
Visually knowing I had no control over it
But eaqually the triggers that contained

But telling myself it wasn't forever
That it was necessary to heal other parts
Helped contain fears and anxieties

But it did also allow me to reflect
On how we see ourselves Visually
As well as how others perceive us

I've felt like a hamster 🐹 the last 3 months
With chubby cheeks rosey in the sunshine
And whilst I've laughed it off with jokes
It's also been a source of discomfort
With old drivers seeping in around weight

But the last 3 months have also
Offered me a window into invisible illnesses
The journey so many take before diagnosis
The journey they take being unheard unseen

Auto immune diseases that are invisible
The outside world can't see what's within
There is discomfort and pain management
There are schedules and appointments
Daily mountains climbed with emotions held

I've felt humbled having a glimpse
Into this world 🌎
One that I'm only on the cusp of
But meeting and knowing others
Who navigate this world daily
Has truly opened my eyes with humility

So to anyone navigating an invisible illness
I see you and I do hope you can pause
In your day To acknowledge something
That you are incredible and Bloody Brave ❤️
And Couragous and seriously Wonderful ❤️
You are a Warrior and you are seen ❤️

This Seriously made me Stop and think
- I've already lost touch with a couple of people I used to be -

As I looked at photos up on my wall
Me Graduating standing proud
Me as a baby with my Mother
Me at my sons wedding
Me holding my children as babies
Me as a Grandmother beaming

I realised something
We are consistently saying Thank you
To all the past versions of US
That got us to the here and now
Grattitude for all those versions navigated

But
I'm also aware of something else
That version of me in the cape and hat
Was a perfectionist and feared change
I've grown immensely since then
A Decade has Shaped me differently

I've wisened and become softer
Less perfection and more authentic

Would I settle in with that perfectionist
At a dinner table over a meal.......
Possibly not
In fact if I could choose
Would I share a meal
With all those past versions of me?
Hell No! Maybe that bossy 6 year old

That 6 year old me
Would need hugs and offer sass
She'd also annoyingly want to make sure
That everyone had a drink and used a napkin!
And that the forks were all in line!
So maybe no I wouldn't invite her
Because I've learned so much since then
Maybe I'd hug her and tuck her up in bed
And then sneak her a chocolate later on!

Some versions of me
Were downright rude and stroppy
Some shouted and fought loudly
One was sullen and prone to aloofness!

But I would show Grattitude to them
And I'd come back to Me now
And I'd say Thank you for getting me here
Then I'd invite some seriously cool people
Not a host of famous guests
But I'd invite my Granny to get history
My friends who have carried me softly
The owner of the coffee shop who smiles
The lady with the walker who always says Hi
My kids would all sit there with views
And I'd smile loudly at the conversations

These are the people I'd choose to sit with
The ones who touch my soul and heart ❤️
The ones I am curious about and want to know

Which past versions of You
Would you choose to sit with
Or choose to honour and wave on by ❤️

27/10/2025

The last of the Autumnal sunshine ❤️
Sometimes Rest looks like sitting still
Sometimes it's sitting in a Doorway
Morning Sunshine resting on your skin
I LOVE a Doorway..........
Like the universe opening up before you
Offering you choices to take ❤️
Choosing to Sit is hard in today's world

I'm learning to slow down
Not and I repeat Not Easy!
It's proving a very Arduous task
I'm impatient and frustrated
Cross that speed won't speed up!

But I'm aware that lessons keep coming
Until we listen carefully and purposefully

How Do you find slowing down?
I thought I'd cracked it years ago
Clearly I hadn't as I fidget and squiggle
When I'm asked to sit quietly ❤️

In a world that pushes hard speed
It's no wonder we're super prepped
To rocket our way through life's maze
Multi tasking whilst juggling grenades
All on a uni cycle in the motorway fast lane
Whilst writing shopping lists and paying bills
Packing school lunches and walkiing dogs
Defusing bomb like rows between kids
Whilst working trojan like and smiling sweetly

You get the picture ❤️
So many women live this way
Until they hit the wall and can't

If you're juggling hand grenades this week
As half term unfolds before you ❤️
Please take a breath Take a moment
For YOU ❤️ 💖 my sweetheart
And just Pause gently and softly
Listen to your body Soften your shoulders
Breathe in Deeply and then out slowly

You CAN slow it all down in a breath
Then step back in from a place of calm
Until the explosions hit......then run for cover!!
