šŸ–ŒWhen talking isn’t the only way healing happens...

Not everyone wants to process their feelings out loud.

For some people, especially those who feel socially anxious, disconnected, or drained by constant self-analysis, healing happens differently.

It happens:
• Sitting alongside others
• Doing something with your hands
• Not being expected to share
• Letting your nervous system settle in safe company

Lisa Ashmore is introducing a small, low-pressure creative group at Riverside.

There’s no requirement to talk. No expectation to perform. Just simple shared creative activity and space to be around others without pressure.

This group may suit you if you:
• Feel anxious or awkward in social settings
• Want connection but struggle with conversation
• Feel tired of analysing yourself
• Want a gentle way back into being with others

šŸ—“ Starts: Tuesday 24th February (morning)
šŸ’· Ā£20 per 60-minute session or 5 sessions for Ā£90

Spaces are limited.

To enquire or book, contact Lisa: highviewtherapy@btinternet.com

⭐Riverside introduces low-cost counselling to make support more accessible⭐

We’re pleased to introduce Jo, a counsellor in training with over 20 years’ experience in care and mental health support.

Jo will be offering sessions on Tuesday afternoons, with appointments priced at £25 per session as part of our commitment to accessible counselling.

Over the past two decades, Jo has supported adults with learning and physical disabilities, neurodivergence, and mental health challenges. She understands that people don’t always express what they feel in obvious ways, and that being properly listened to can be life-changing.

Warm, empathetic and down-to-earth, Jo offers inclusive counselling rooted in real-life experience. She is particularly passionate about supporting LGBTQ+ individuals, neurodivergent clients, and women navigating menopause-related changes.

Her aim is to provide a space where you can stop performing, feel safe to be yourself, and begin to find your voice again.

To enquire or book a Tuesday appointment please email info@riversidewellbeing.com

Her sporting career was halted by injury - That’s why Marianne does what she does. (and we're so pleased she does it here at Riverside!)

Before becoming a Sports Massage Therapist, Marianne was an athlete whose training was halted by a serious injury just before a major competition. The rehab, treatment and work it took to return to high-level performance shaped how she now supports others.

Marianne is a Level 5 qualified Sports Massage Therapist and Movement Specialist with experience working from everyday movers to elite athletes. Her sessions go beyond massage, focusing on how your body moves, what’s restricting it and how to get you back doing what matters to you.

If pain, stiffness or injury is limiting your movement or performance, Marianne helps you address the cause, not just manage the symptoms.

Appointments start from £50 per hour.
Message Marianne on 07738 385 118 or email: sharpemassage@gmail.com to book.

What do Riverside practitioners get up to behind the scenes?

Last week’s CPD looked less like a training room and more like a Lego explosion.
Grown adults. Tiny bricks. Big conversations.

We were exploring our work, our practices and how we see things differently when we stop doing what we always do. There was proper thinking, unexpected insight, a lot of laughter, and excellent snacks - obviously!

This is the bit people don’t always see.

Being a Riverside associate isn’t just about using a space. It’s about being part of a community that values learning, reflection and not taking ourselves too seriously while still doing very serious work.

Professional development that actually feels useful.
Connection without the awkward networking.
And space to grow, together.

Behind the blue door, this is what it looks like.

We all have lots of different relationships. With partners, family, friends, colleagues, and even with ourselves.

When relationships feel strained, it’s easy to assume the work is about other people. What they’re doing, how they’re behaving, or what needs fixing.

What we often see, is that things start to change when someone feels more steady in themselves. More able to trust their own reactions and say what they actually mean.

When that happens, relationships often begin to feel different too. Not because anyone else has suddenly changed, but because something has shifted in how that person shows up.

If you’d like to explore this more, we’re here to talk things through.

As February begins, here’s a question for you.

Where are you pushing yourself to be more understanding than you actually feel?

That might be at work, at home, or with yourself. Letting things slide, smoothing things over, telling yourself it’s fine when it doesn’t really feel that way.

Sometimes just noticing that is enough to tell you something needs a bit of attention.

If that question stuck with you, Riverside Wellbeing is there when you want to work things through.
