The Therapist’s Therapist
From Both Sides of the Chair

One of the things people sometimes notice about the way I work is that I don’t run back-to-back sessions all day.

That isn’t accidental.

Therapy asks a lot of the person holding the space. It requires attention, emotional presence, and the ability to attune carefully to another person’s inner world.

If I move too quickly from one session to the next, that presence begins to thin out.

So I don’t work that way.

I take time between sessions. Time to settle, reflect, breathe, sometimes simply be quiet or make art for myself.

Over the years I have learned that taking care of my own nervous system is not separate from the work — it is part of the work.

And part of that, for me, has always been my own therapy. Not as something I “should” do, but something I genuinely love.

I value being in the chair as a client as much as I value the chair I sit in as a therapist.

It keeps me real. Human. In contact with the work from the inside. I don’t ask anyone to go where I am not willing to go myself.

That matters to me.

It means I know, in my own body, what it is to arrive, to open, to resist, to unravel, and to change.

When a therapist is resourced and met in their own work, the space they offer to others becomes steadier too.

A significant part of my work is with other therapists and coaches.

I mentor and work alongside practitioners who are already holding a great deal — people who are used to being the steady one in the room.

Because of that, I am very aware of what it takes to sustain this work over time.

Not just professionally, but physically, emotionally, and relationally.

I don’t treat this as separate from the therapy. It is the therapy.

Working from both sides of the chair means I hold that in mind at all times.

And when you are in the room with me, you don’t have to be the practitioner.

You don’t have to hold it all together.
You can simply be a person in the work.

That is the work I do.

love,
Kas

👑 From Kassi’s journal —
in case this helps you too…

You don’t honour the women who came before you by inheriting their exhaustion.

By carrying what they carried.
By coping the way they had to cope.
By putting yourself last because they did.

That’s not honouring them.
That’s continuing the cost.

Real honouring looks different.
It looks like saying… this stops with me.

Not in a dramatic way. Not in a blaming way.
But in a steady, grounded way.

It looks like learning how to rest when rest wasn’t available to them.

Learning how to speak when they had to stay quiet.

Learning how to have needs when theirs were pushed aside.

And yes… that can feel uncomfortable, because part of you might feel like you’re being disloyal.

Like you’re stepping out of line.
Like you’re leaving them behind.

But you’re not. You’re doing something they couldn’t. You’re letting the pattern end.

That doesn’t erase what they went through.
It doesn’t make it insignificant.
If anything… it gives it meaning.

Because their struggle doesn’t have to keep living on through your body, your stress, your exhaustion.

That’s not cold. That’s love…with boundaries.

And it’s something you can learn.

Love,
Kas

👑 Thinking Of Having Therapy…

I’m going to say something that might make you pause.

When I sit with someone… I know quite a lot, quite quickly. I feel what’s happening underneath.

I see patterns. I notice the things that aren’t being said.

If you’re someone who reads rooms…
who senses what others are feeling…
who picks up on things others miss…
you’ll recognise this too.

And you’ll probably also know what it’s like
to carry that on your own.

You might wonder:

“Will I be too visible?”
“Will I be seen before I’m ready?”
“Will there be anywhere to hide?”

And the honest answer is…this probably isn’t the kind of space where you can stay hidden.

But let me say… I don’t force. I don’t push. I don’t drag things into the light before you’re ready to meet them. I hold those I meet with love.

This isn’t about being seen by me.

It’s about you becoming able to see yourself… safely. At your pace. With support.

I can hold what shows up without flinching, fixing, or overwhelming you.

The women who come to me usually already sense this about themselves.

They’re tired of skimming the surface.
Tired of managing, performing, holding it all together.

They’re ready for something more honest.
More real. More alive.

So yes… you will be seen here. But not in a way that takes anything from you. In a way that gives you back to yourself.

Love,
Kas

When a therapist is regulated and present, the space they offer to others becomes steadier too.

Perhaps that is also part of what some colleagues mean when they describe me as the therapist’s therapist.

It simply means I take the work seriously enough to take care of myself as well.

The Benefits of Painting Our Yoni
on a large canvas

One of the most common and most honest questions women ask me is: 'What will I get from this experience?'

Not the theory. Not the psychology. Just… what will it actually give me?

Will I feel more confident? YES!
Will I feel better about my body? YES!
Is it about empowerment? YES!

Yes, all of that, and more — but in ways that are very real, very human and often very gentle.

Having me there gently guiding you through my unique process is a vital aspect to this.

When a woman paints her yoni she is not creating a perfect image. She is giving herself time, space and permission to turn towards a part of her that has often been ignored, judged, hidden or shaped by other people’s expectations.

What she gains first is a feeling of being more at home in herself. Women say they feel more comfortable in their body. The constant self-consciousness softens. The critical voice quietens. There is a sense of “this is me” that comes with warmth rather than the shame we grow up with.

Confidence grows, but not as a performance. It is a steady, grounded confidence that comes from the inside. A feeling of being rooted in yourself.

Many women experience a release from shame they didn’t even realise they were carrying. Years of awkwardness, comparison, silence or embarrassment begin to loosen. In its place comes acceptance, and often pride.

There is also a deep reconnection to their sexuality, but in a way that belongs entirely to them. Not something for someone else. Not something defined by the past. Their own relationship with their body, their desire, their aliveness.

Boundaries become clearer. Women find it easier to say yes when they mean yes and no when they mean no. There is a new sense of self-trust. A feeling that their body is giving them information they can rely on.

Emotionally, something shifts. There is often a sense of release, of things moving that have been held for a long time. And alongside that comes a quieter, stronger nervous system. A feeling of calm. Of being more settled.

Creatively, something opens. Energy that has been used to hold everything together becomes available for life. Women often leave feeling more alive, more playful, more themselves.

And there is always a huge sense of achievement.

Because it takes courage to do this.

To show up. To paint - even though you may not have painted since primary school. And to see yourself in a new way.

Women leave proud of themselves. They feel empowered, but not in a loud or forced way. It is a quiet, steady sense of “I am here. This is my body. This is my life. And I am allowed to take up space in it.”

They also leave with their painting. Not just as an artwork, but as a visible reminder of what they have reclaimed. Many hang it in their bedroom or their hallway as a daily reflection of their own power, beauty and wholeness and a knew knowing that you will learn during the painting process.

So when you ask what it will give you, the simplest answer is this:

You will feel more comfortable in your body.
More confident in yourself.
More connected to your sexuality on your own terms.
Clearer in your boundaries.
Less ashamed.
More alive.
More you.

And perhaps most importantly, you will stop abandoning yourself. And that changes everything.

Just let me know you are ready and we will find a day to suit your busy life and diary.

👑Planet👑Kas👑 isn’t an “online programme”.

It’s more like having a place where you can land.

A place where thoughtful women gather, talk, reflect and grow.

And where ♥️I’m there too♥️

Not as some distant expert dropping content once a week.

But as a human being who shows up.

👑Planet👑Kas👑 is not a DIY course!

I am someone you can lean on.

Someone who listens.

Someone who helps you make sense of things when life feels confusing or heavy.

I respond - not just with "wow!" Or “Oh No!! 🥺”

These are empty, throwaway remarks... I REALLY respond with wisdom, knowledge and humanity.

Women often tell me that just knowing the space is there changes something for them.

They know they can come in, read, participate, share, reflect or simply sit quietly in the presence of others who are also doing the work of understanding themselves.

This kind of space is rare.

It is built on connection, honesty, curiosity, knowledge and love.

Not perfection.

Just real women living real lives and supporting each other as we grow, shed what no longer serves us and become more of who we were born to be.

And I’m right there in the middle of it all.

Come in for a month, stay as long as you wish, cancel anytime. Choose self-study or full membership.

Love,
Kas

👑From Kassi’s Learning Journal -
in case this helps you too…♥️

Insight alone doesn’t change a life.

I can understand my patterns perfectly and still find myself standing in exactly the same place.

I can see clearly why I react the way I do.

Where those patterns came from.

What shaped them.

And yet nothing actually changes.

🌟Understanding is important.

But understanding on its own doesn’t move our lives forward.

What begins to shift things is where I position myself.

Who I face.
What I turn towards.
What I gently begin to turn away from.

Sometimes it’s about no longer holding things that were never really mine to carry.

Sometimes it’s about standing a little differently in the same life.

Change doesn’t always arrive dramatically.

Often it begins with very small movements.

A different response.
A boundary spoken more clearly.
A moment of honesty with ourselves.

Movement matters.

Even when it’s quiet and small.

Especially then.

Love,
Kas 👑♥️👑

♥️Something is Gathering♥️
👑Yonique is Coming👑

For a long time I have worked at the intersection of therapy, embodiment, sexuality and creative ritual.

A place where women tell the truth about their bodies, their histories, their desires and their healing.

I am now opening a space for women to contribute to something living.

I’m inviting women to write a letter or create an image that speaks to their relationship with their yoni. This could be tenderness, anger, grief, reclamation, pleasure, silence, curiosity… wherever you are with it.

You might want to write a letter to your yoni.

Your Yoni might write to you. Yes - a simple therapeutic approach to expression and I can show you how.

You might paint, draw, collage, stitch or create an image that expresses something words can’t quite hold.

There is no “right” way to do this. Only your way.

You may wish to gift your work to become a part of a collective body of work I am gathering — voices and images from women who are willing to bring the hidden parts of their experience into the light.

If something in you feels a quiet yes, follow it.

You can message me if you’d like to contribute or if you want to know more about what is unfolding.

There is power in women speaking directly about the places we were taught to hide.

Let’s begin there and know I am here as a support to lean upon 💜

Love
Kas

Sometimes women join Planet Kas just to have a quiet place to journal.

Some stay for months.
Some come in for a single month and take what they need.
Some simply read the prompts and let them sit in their body for a while before writing anything at all.

There is no pressure to complete everything inside Planet Kas.

The prompts are simply there for you — like doors you can open when you feel ready.

Here’s a small example of the kind of journalling invitation that went into the group today.

Today’s theme is Grief & Loss — The Grief of Feeling Like a Burden.

A few of the questions women are gently exploring today are:

• When did I first learn that my needs were “too much”?
• Who or what taught me that asking for help was a problem?
• What did I long to say when I was called needy, dramatic, difficult, or draining?
• What would it have been like to be met with care instead?

Some women write pages.
Some make a small piece of art.
Some simply sit with the question and notice what moves inside.

All of it counts.

Inside Planet Kas we are slowly unlearning the old story that women are a burden for having needs, emotions, and depth.

You are welcome to come in for a month if you’d simply like a space to journal, reflect, and explore.

No pressure.
No catching up required.
Just a place to land.

If that calls you, the door is open.

Love
Kas

Many women come to my work wanting a bigger life.

They want to create more.
Speak more boldly.
Feel more alive.

But something stops them.

They are incredible, capable women 🔥♥️🔥

Mothers. Coaches. Professionals. Artists. Women who have read the books and understand the theory of empowerment.

They may have had counselling but it stopped short of the transformation that I provide.

So when it comes to actually stepping forward with their ideas, their voice, or their ambitions, something in them contracts.

They hesitate.
They second-guess.
They shrink.

This does not happen by accident.

Many women have had their life force gradually suppressed over years. As girls they were expressive, curious, creative, and full of energy. But slowly the world begins to coerce them into believing something untrue.

They say, 'You're Too..."

Too loud.
Too emotional.
Too ambitious.
Too sexual.
Too much.

Sometimes these messages come from teachers, family members, partners, or institutions.

Sometimes they come from powerful men who quietly or openly diminish a woman’s ideas. Even your loving Dad - because he too was shaped by the same conditioning.

Over time a woman learns that being fully alive can bring criticism, rejection, or punishment.

So she adapts.

Instead she becomes capable, responsible, agreeable. Not a “bad” thing you might think!

BUT she learns to organise her life around approval rather than aliveness.

From the outside she may look successful, but something inside her feels muted.

Part of my work is helping women recognise what has happened to their life force, locate that mute button and flick that switch.

Life force is the raw energy of being alive. It includes creativity, curiosity, courage, sexuality, imagination, and drive.

It is the energy that fuels art, ideas, businesses, leadership, and the desire to live fully.

When life force is suppressed, women often feel flat or disconnected from their own desires.

They become very good at doing what is expected of them, but the deeper fire inside them has gone quiet.

When life force begins returning, everything starts to change.

Once I awaken their life force energy, it refuses to allow the world to dilute them anymore.

Women who have been calm, careful, and restrained suddenly feel anger where they once felt resignation 🔥

They feel desire where they once felt numbness 🔥♥️🔥

They feel courage where they once felt fear👑

Sometimes they become a little fiery. That is not a problem. It is life returning.

One of the ways this awakening happens is through our working relationship where I believe in them.

I often think of a story from my own family.

A very close, loving relative of mine has a son who, when he was about 13 years old, was relentlessly bullied.

Every day when he got off the school bus he was attacked by the same boy while dozens of teenagers watched on, excited by the attack.

Night after night. My young relative hobbled home bruised all over. It didn't matter what anyone said to him, nothing changed.

One day my relative left work early without telling his son. He went to the bus stop and waited for the bus to arrive.

When the bullying began, he stepped forward and stood nearby his son, in front of a huge crowd of goading teenagers who had gathered to watch.

My relative didn’t fight the battle for him.

He simply stood there and said, “Come on son, you can do it. Look at the size of him, battering you - and you have strong muscles and lots of power!!”

What mattered most in that moment was not the advice.

It was the presence.
The support.
The love.
The belief in him.

The determination that my younger relative was not going to be battered relentlessly every evening, humiliated and taunted, lowering his self-esteem bit by bit.

The boy suddenly realised that his father had come. His father cared enough to leave work and stand beside him in front of everyone and believe in him.

The internal belief changed.

He wasn’t alone anymore.

He could feel my relative's potency, drive and determination and this rubbed off on him.

That night the dynamic switched and my younger relative became a local hero as he fought off the attack. It NEVER happened again.

And my young relative was transformed.

His confidence and self-esteem went through the roof but it did not turn him into a bully or a big head.

He is now in his 40’s, with a loving wife, children and a fantastic job. Everyone loves him.

He still has the big loving heart, the sense of fun and happiness that just oozes from him whatever he is doing.

And he knows the power in his body. From that moment the courage to fight back sprang from him.

This story captures something essential about transformation.

Sometimes what a person needs most is someone standing beside them long enough for them to realise they are stronger than they thought.

This isn't about physically fighting - it's about igniting that incredible potent fiery Energy you were born with.

In my work, I unapologetically say that this is part of what I do.

I stand beside you.

Not in the sense of creating dependency, but in the sense of offering something many people never received earlier in life: encouragement, belief, challenge, and a steady voice saying “You CAN do this!”

I psycho-educate women.
I excite them.
I incite their courage.
I trust their potential and capacity.
I want them to have their dreams.

I stand beside them while they rediscover their life force.

The goal is not that they rely on me forever.
The goal is that they eventually outgrow me - and they do.

When the work succeeds, the belief becomes internal. The woman no longer needs someone standing beside her because she has become that voice for herself.

She speaks up.
She creates.
She leads.
She lives more boldly.

When this begins to return, they may feel more creative, more expressive, more confident, sometimes even physically more alive.

This energy fuels creativity and leadership.

When it awakens - and I see this happen again and again inside Planet Kas - women begin changing things in their lives.

They set boundaries they previously avoided.

They pursue ideas they once dismissed regardless of those who try to distract or dilute us.

They stop organising their lives around approval and start organising them around truth.

This is why the world sometimes feels uncomfortable with powerful women.

A woman who is fully alive is difficult to control or manipulate.
She speaks her mind.
She follows her curiosity.
She trusts her instincts.
She refuses to shrink to make others comfortable.

For many women this awakening can feel both exhilarating and unfamiliar. They may wonder if they are becoming too much.

They are not.
They are becoming fully alive.

And THIS is the energy that will not allow your life to be stolen from you by others or allow distractions to keep you from your purpose in life.

We are here to bring our gifts to the world. This is my gift.
And I will fight to the end to offer it to others.

How are you right now?
Something in you may be stirring 🔥

A spark. A memory.
A quiet sense that the life force in you has been waiting to breathe more fully.

If that is you, you are very welcome to continue this journey with me.

Inside Planet Kas I share my full body of work — psychoeducation, art processes, deep reflection, conversations, and the kind of fiery encouragement that helps women reconnect with their life force and their truth. I do not hold back.

For women who simply want to explore quietly in their own time, there is now a self-study option for £9.99 a month.

Simply go to 👑Planet♥️Kas👑

Scroll down to join the Self-Study monthly option.

Cancel any time. Come back if you change your mind.

Enter the library, explore the work, and take what nourishes you at your own pace.

And if you feel called to connect more deeply, you can also join the wider Planet Kas community where women share, question, grow and support each other with me present and very available.

I DO respond. This is not the usual Do-It-Yourself 'program'.

You are warmly invited and I will ignite you.

Love

You’re invited to contribute to the forthcoming Yonique Art Installation.

From time to time I will be opening my studio to women who would like to come and create a small piece for the future installation.

You might write a letter to your Yoni.
You might draw a simple image.
You might just sit quietly and let something emerge.

All materials are here for you.

This is not a workshop and there is no charge.

It’s simply a gentle creative moment for women who feel curious about expressing something that is often left unspoken.

We women carry stories, feelings, or questions about our bodies, our sexuality, and our life experiences that have never had a safe place to land.

Yonique is a collective installation where those voices can exist.

You’ll spend a little time in the studio, create something small if you wish, and add it to the growing installation.

It’s also a way to quietly experience the atmosphere of the space and the kind of work I hold here.

If you feel drawn to come and contribute something, send me a message and we’ll arrange a time.

You might like to come with a friend. This always helps us having someone to accompany us. My studio is a loving, empathic space, good quality materials and I’ll make you a cuppa ☕️

Love
Kas
