Thinking of gifting a therapy voucher this Christmas? Fine, once you’ve thought it through.. Here’s why:
A few people have purchased these as a gift during the week. If you are considering giving mental-health counselling or trauma psychotherapy vouchers as a gift, they make sense if you know the person well, believe they’d welcome such support, and — ideally — have discussed it with them. Otherwise it risks being awkward or presumptuous. If you’re satisfied it’s a good idea, then use the contact page on selfcare.ie or message 0863375310. Happy Christmas 🤶 🎅🏼

"Difference is the essence of humanity. Difference is an accident of birth and it should therefore never be the source of hatred or conflict. The answer to difference is to respect it. Therein lies a most fundamental principle of peace: respect for diversity."

John Hume (1937–2020)

🕊 Today is International Day of Peace

The love language we don't talk about.

It's the quiet act of someone choosing to work on themselves.

Not just for their own sake, but for the health of the relationship.

It’s easy to say “That’s just how I am,” and expect others to accept our flaws and triggers as unchangeable parts of us.

But real love ..... deep, mature love, looks different.

It’s someone who recognizes their wounds and patterns, and instead of making them your burden, takes responsibility for their healing.

It’s the partner who notices when their words cut too deep, or when old habits threaten new happiness, and chooses to do the work to grow.

You deserve someone who doesn’t expect you to simply tolerate the parts of them that hurt you.

You deserve someone who sees the impact of their actions and is willing to change, not because you demand it, but because they care about your peace, your safety, and your heart.

Love isn’t just about grand gestures or sweet words.

Sometimes, it’s about accountability.

It’s about someone who looks at their own reflection and says, “I want to be better for me, for you, for us.”

That’s the kind of love that builds trust, deepens connection, and heals old wounds.

Always remember .... you are worthy of a love that grows.

Of a partner who chooses healing over excuses, effort over complacency.

Don’t settle for less than someone who’s willing to do the work, because that’s a love language that will last a lifetime.

The first rule of the Bank of Mum and Dad is you do not talk about the Bank of Mum and Dad – to paraphrase Fight Club – the cult 1990s novel and film that riffed on generational angst.
