✨ Change Starts With You ✨
Healing isn’t a straight line—but every step forward begins with a choice.
Choosing therapy is choosing yourself. 💛
Growth. Awareness. Transformation.
It all starts within. And you don’t have to do it alone.

🧠 Start therapy. Start the change.

The disturbing, intrusive thoughts and negative inner voice in our minds don't need to persist. Everyone experiences that inner voice, and the issue arises when we believe it's real.

Remember,
Thoughts are not facts!

Sometimes our minds get all jumbled with overthinking, which leads to spiralling, and in the end, it makes no sense, leading to sleepless nights and anxiety
In therapy, you can work through issues in a safe space with a professional, getting a better perspective, making some sense and order to the thoughts, taking away the overthinking and creating a sense of peace

Welcoming Pride month and supporting the Lgbtq+ community with work and in my personal life as it is close to my heart, this post I found very poignant 🌈🌈🌈🌈
Someone once said to me you don't come out once you come out every day !

Love is love. Let all just be kind and excepting especially in this world of chaos and judgement

Most of us are trying to fit in or people pleasing for acceptance
When we get to find out who we are, our Authentic selves and except who we are, then and only then can we decide to change

It's so easy to let our past control our future, especially if there has been trauma and sadness
However, it doesn't have to talking about past experiences in a safe space with a professional can help you move forward carrying less anxiety and feeling better and more positive about the future

I start each therapy session by asking, “How are you in this present moment?”

The answer nearly always is “Im Fine “

I ask them to choose another word, always

Fine and ok are the go-to words to hide all our emotions and thoughts, which will eventually lead to anxiety and issues with self-esteem

Were multi-faceted, unique individuals, all of us
We're so much more than we believe

Next time someone asks how you are, think about how you respond and vice versa

As it is mental health awareness week, let's do a few things that cost nothing and may change someone's life

1
Ask if someone is ok? And listen to the response (I'm fine, ok )
2
Ask again!!
3
Listen without talking. Some people need to be heard
4
If you feel concerned, pass a number on to a counsellor or Samaritans
5
Show empathy to others. You never know what someone is going through, even if they are smiling ❤️

Bottling up emotions can lead to many issues, from feeling upset to major anxiety
by having uncomfortable conversations, we grow and learn about ourselves and the others around us
In therapy, you discover how to have the conversations that can strengthen your relationships with friends❤️
