Grieving in your own time.

I still dont know.
Fully.
How to live my life with you gone.
I tried so hard to be the same me.
Every day.
But wanting life to be done.
I tried to be what was expected
But abnormal, misunderstood.
I tried to fulfil your life.
That didnt work out good.
Trying to make things happen.
The way I would want them for you.
But nothing that I tried.
Seemed to help me get through.
Because.
I missed you.
And I missed you.
And then.
I missed you even more.
I just so wanted to remember.
You hold me.
Be the one that you adore.

I miss you in a way
That not many people know.
I dont have the memories to remember.
Or the photographs to show.
I have so many missed moments.
That left no hopeful scope.
Darkness deep enough to take me.
But.
I choose to see hope.

In the nurture that you left me.
In the belief of your grace.
In the image I now have.
Of the beauty in your face.

You birthed me.
You loved me.
You moulded me
Im in awe of all you gave.
Before.
You were free.
In all the times that you were brave.

I love you.
I always love you.
But more than that, I miss you.
But I know, although we're apart..
I feel your love too.
And I carry it.
With me, always.
And it overflows my heart.
But.
I miss you every day.
And that missing.
That darkness of missing.
That!
That sadness of missing.
Thats ok.

Missing....

I got lost for so many years
In the consumption of missing you.
Burdened by the pain
That I treasured as real and true.
Until I watched my babies smile
Delighted in their every being.
And realised the missing
Was in all that you're not seeing.
I remembered every moment
As a mother that I treasure.
And I took a moment to consider
That, You, missed so much of that pleasure.
You never got to see me
Be the best that I could be.
I cant imagine the missing
Of the things I get to have for free.
We never got to argue
In my years of growing up.
When love broke my heart into peices.
You never got to pick those peices up.
I see life now through the lens
Of the many pleasures I get to host.
And I realised, despite my pain.
You.
You, have missed the most.
My heart still breaks often
In my memories of you.
But in all the loss I feel
I remember your loss means so very much too.

Mum. I hope you always watch and see, you created something good ❤️❤️

Inner child Recovery
2 Day Training

Don't miss the opportunity to experience this unique 2day training of Attachment Focused Inner Child Recovery.

This approach is developed on the back of 23 years’ experience of working with both children and adults impacted by complex trauma, and brings together a number of approaches designed to facilitate a safe and effective model of inner child recovery work.

The first day looks into the theory of Attachment and the Inner Child; what went wrong for the child and how this impacts on the adults beliefs, expectations and behaviours. Specific focus is given to the importance of resourcing the adult ego state through psycho education, identifying goals and motivation, hurdles to recovery and helping to develop self- regulation skills.

The second day then looks at the implementation of the recovery journey and beyond.

Both days will contain a mix of theory and experiential learning as well as examples of lived experience.

Course Content: Day 1:

Step 1 : Safety and Stabilisation: Assessment; psycho-education

Step 2: Understanding and Utilising: Building skills to strengthen the Adult Self; Separating out; Coaching the Critical parent.

Step 3: Commit, Correct; Connect; Communicate: Goals and Motivation for change; Correcting negative self- talk; first steps to connection; communicating acceptance, attunement, empathy and validation.

Between training days participants are encouraged to go away and Implement the first 3 steps in order to be able to feed back or query at the second day.

Day 2: Recap and reflect.

Step 4. Embrace and Empower: The journey to meet your Inner Child. Identifying and repairing unmet needs.

Step 5: Setting Scripts: Giving back what shouldn’t have been given and claiming back what was stolen. Rewriting old scripts. Committing to change.

Step 6: Succeed: Setting SMART goals to consolidate success.

Neurodivergent & Struggling with Therapy? You’re Not Alone.

For many neurodivergent individuals, therapy can feel like an uphill battle. Common feedback I hear includes:

🔹️Therapy doesn’t seem to work; Traditional methods like CBT often don't address neurodivergent needs fully, sometimes leading to masking or feeling misunderstood. Therapy should be about self-acceptance, not just changing behaviours to fit societal norms.

🔹️Difficulty connecting with therapists: Many clients say they feel "failed" by therapy. The problem? It wasn’t tailored to their brain's unique way of processing. Neurodivergent individuals need therapists who understand their specific challenges.

🔹️Fear of judgement or lack of accommodations: Often, therapy spaces don’t consider sensory needs or provide a neurodiversity-affirming approach. This can make sessions overwhelming or unproductive.

At S. Dobson Therapy Services, I use a neurodiversity-affirming approach, focusing on strengths rather than deficits. Whether it’s through compassionate approaches like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) or mindfulness, my goal is to create a safe, inclusive space that respects your individuality. Let’s work together to develop strategies that empower you without forcing you to mask your true self. Your brain isn’t the problem—let’s find a therapy that celebrates who you are.

Trauma is unique to the person who experiences it. What one person can shrug off another person may internalise and carry. In the spirit of mental awareness lets open our minds to the experience of trauma that takes over life.....
