Leave the Light On Counselling

09/18/2023

Hello,
I would like to reach out and let you know about some changes that I've been working on. Going forward, Megan Taylor Counselling will be changing its name to Leave the Light On Counselling. This new name has sentiment attached and feels fitting for how I would like to grow this practice and help others.

Starting October 16 I will be working part time and able to see clients online, via telephone, and now in person at 21 Pippy Place! You can reach out via messenger, email, or phone to schedule or visit my website to book online.

Thank you all so much for the support you've shown so far, and I hope this next chapter allows me to continue to grow and learn.

Losing a loved one is never easy, and grief can often become overwhelming, especially this time of year. If you are feeling the impact of grief, please reach out for help. 🖤

Dad picks up Milk Biscuit, who smells of bubblegum (another special request from Summer), and is instructed to press the paw. The next thing we hear is nan’s voice, sweetly saying “Hello darling,” her go-to phrase.

Found this article on how spreading kindness makes happier people. Think how happy we'd be if we could also make a habit of being kind to ourselves. 🖤

When students do even small acts of kindness it makes them happier, says a new study from the University of British Columbia.

I love this. Journaling can help us focus our thinking, and navigate through what thoughts are helpful and which ones are perhaps our anxiety talking. It can also help us release some of those powerful emotions that may be difficult to manage.

Even if you aren't a writer, journaling can mean drawings, doodles, coloring, collaging, etc. There is no right or wrong way to express your emotions.

This is why I love writing and journaling. ❤

Bridge the Gapp is a great resource for adults and youth who are looking for a little more information on topics like anxiety, body image, identity, and relationships, just to name a few. It also has other resources linked for those interested in doing more research. Sometimes all we need is a little information to help us make informed choices towards our goals. 🖤
