Believing in yourself is not just a cliché but where everything begins. Just like motivation though it's not present every single day. you have to sometimes rest and sometimes show up anyway. Pushing through the noise of doubts consistently. Eventually it compounds piece by piece and that's where change happens.

There’s courage in simply noticing how you really feel. Not judging it, not fixing it, not forcing it into something prettier but just witnessing your truth. We spend so much of life trying to be 'okay' that we forget the strength it takes to sit with the difficult emotions we’d rather outrun. Every feeling, even the heavy ones carries a piece of our story too. The parts that hurt, the parts that healed and the parts still learning. When we name what we’re feeling we reclaim a little piece of ourselves. We stop abandoning who we are in pursuit of who we think we should be. Maybe today you’re a tangle of contradictions both tired and hopeful or both hurting and growing. That’s still honest. That’s still you.

Also important not to pretend to be okay all the time. Of corse there are time and places to share whats truly going on for you. There has to be a depth of trust to open up too but sometimes a real conversation can help. It does build a bond and connection aswel when you can be vulnerable.

Ask yourself gently...what is the truth of me right now?

It may be your parents, siblings, partner, family, friends, colleagues or a stranger! Maybe they need to hear that today. Maybe it will enhance your relationship. Could be that someone needs to know how appreciated they are.

In a world brimming with darkness be the light and manifest the duality of life!

Self-loathing isn’t born from weakness though. It’s often the residue of old wounds, expectations you bent yourself to meet, love you had to earn and mistakes you were never allowed to outgrow. Over time you learn to target the same harshness against yourself that the world once showed you. You become both the hurt one and the one punishing yourself too.

Beneath even the deepest self-disgust there is always a quieter voice when you dig for it. The part of you that still hopes for softness, even if you don’t believe you deserve it. That small voice isn’t naïve it’s a survivor!

Real healing begins when you let that voice speak. Not to cancel the darkness but to remind you that you are more than the parts of yourself you’ve learned to hate.

Book an intro call to help put you at ease taking the first step and give you an opportunity to ask any questions. We will briefly discuss what your struggles are to identify which Therapist may be a good match before investing any time, money or effort.

If you'd prefer you can do the questionnaire instead.

You will then be sent personalised information and a booking link, if you choose to go ahead and get started.

We get so focused on the life we’re building that we forget to honor the versions of ourselves that got us to this point. The one who showed up when no one was watching and who took small steps when everything felt heavy. You owe that person gratitude. You owe them pride.

Dreaming of a better life is beautiful but remember the future you want is rooted in the courage of your past. Every scar, every setback and every lesson shaped your resilience and character. You are worthy. You’re not behind. You’re not lost. You’re simply re-aligning and evolving.

Take a moment to sit with that, the distance between who you were and who you are today. Let it fill you with quiet pride. You’re already living proof that transformation is possible. Keep your eyes on the dream yes but don’t forget to celebrate the journey that’s made you strong enough to chase it.

You're not where you want to be right now but you're also not where you used to be!

With all the training and textbooks in the world no one knows you the way you do! You're with your mind 24/7! A Therapist therfore should not tell you directly what to do they support you make sense of things in your own way, feel peace, acceptance or find answers as they naturally come. They will help draw out those things with you and encourage deeper exploration.

When the weight of what’s next feels unbearable the mind tries to escape to the future for control or back to the past for meaning. Peace only lives here though in this moment. The present is the only place strong enough to hold you when everything else feels uncertain. There's a time and a place to reflect, explore or set goals but some days you just need to be.

Taking it one day at a time means showing up even when your mind trembles. Healing often happens in the pauses, in the quiet places where nothing seems to be changing but something inside you is learning to breathe again. We also can gain clarity when we slow down the pace of life. Slowly chipping away at things is better than collapsing from pressure.

Let today be all you have to manage. Let the sun rise and set without asking it for more.

We get asked about why we don't share content based on labels or theory a lot here at Silver Linings. It is indeed intentional. Although everything is underpinned by theory we believe in being human first. Likewise in sessions we won't bombard you with psychology jargon it will feel like a 2 way meaningful conversation. Some clients are curious and bring bits they've read too and that's cool but not necessary. We do the training so you dont have to!
