A fun morning at BBC Radio Leeds with Sarah Hex and I chatting to Gayle Lofthouse promoting our fundraising event NEXT SATURDAY - a 24hour Danceathon 🪩💃 in aid of two amazing charities Well Women Wakefield and Ocular Melanoma UK.

We would love love love more support - donation and eventbrite ticket link in the comments ✨🙏

The countdown is ON! 💃🕺🪩

In just 1 week I will be taking part in a sponsored 24-hour Danceathon on Saturday 17th January 2026 — dancing through the day and night to raise vital funds for an incredible women’s counselling charity Well Women Wakefield and Ocular Melanoma UK

It’s going to be joyful, challenging, a little bit exhausting… and absolutely worth it. Every step, spin and sore muscle helps support women to access the care, compassion and counselling they deserve 💚🩵 and helps support people facing a little-known and aggressive form of cancer 🙏

If you’d like to cheer me on, support the cause, or get involved, I’d love to have you with me on this journey. Let’s turn music into meaning and movement into impact.

More to come as the countdown continues… ✨

It's not the most wonderful time of the year for everyone.

In fact, we know it can sometimes feel like the opposite. The festivities can bring back memories, evoke powerful emotions and be a painful time.

This winter, 1 in 7 children in England and Wales wake up each day to domestic abuse.

Not joy or warmth. Just fear. Just survival. Domestic abuse is a national emergency. It’s putting children in danger - and robbing them of a safe, happy childhood.

Children are victims in their own right. And right now, they are being failed. It’s time to demand better. Because no child should be afraid at home. Please donate today if you can https://womensaid.org.uk/donate/

Anyone else feel like they're in Chief Festive Operations Manager mode? 🎅

I wanted to share something real today, especially for my connections who are working parents. The run-up to Christmas isn't always magical and cozy. As working parents, we already have multiple demanding roles ... but perhaps you've also unknowingly taken on a further, more high-pressure role: Chief Festive Operations Manager - CFOM.

The job description includes: 🎅
👩‍💻 Logistics: Mapping out the run-up and Christmas Day schedule.
🎁 Procurement: Sourcing the perfect, must-have gifts - for and on behalf of EVERYONE.
🗓️ Event Planning: Managing *all* school and social calendars.
💷 Budgeting: Dealing with the inevitable financial strain.

It’s exhausting. It’s relentless. Operational efficiency is probably at 100%, but what about your internal 🪫 battery?

As a counsellor, I see the result of CFOM burnout every January. Before you crash, consider scheduling some time for you. If you’re ready to delegate the worrying to a professional, send me a message.

Hello from me: Your Kind and Friendly ☀️
Are you someone who is feeling stressed, worried, or just a little bit stuck? Do you feel like you are carrying a heavy backpack of worries all the time?

I'm Lynsey, and my job is to be a trusted listener and a helpful guide for adults who want to feel better. I am a qualified , which means I've had special training to help people with their thoughts and feelings. I'm a registered member of the BACP (that's the main professional body in the UK that ensures high standards for therapists). I'm also a working parent, wife, daughter, sister and friend.

🪜What We Do Together
Think of therapy as a safe, comfy space where you can take a time-out from all the busy-ness of life. A time to pause and reflect, with support.

👂We Listen: I give you my full attention, and you can talk about anything at all without being judged.

🧠 We Figure It Out: We work like a team to understand why you feel stressed, anxious, or down. We look at what is happening in your life right now, and perhaps also look at your past.

🛠️We Find Tools: I help you find new, practical tools (like new ways of thinking or good habits) that will help you feel stronger, calmer, and more like yourself again. This can help you deal with things better in the future.

Who I Usually Help
I help all kinds of adults, including:

🌬️People who feel very worried, , or who are out from work or home life.

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦Parents who are juggling their children and other jobs.

🧘‍♀️Women who are going through big, important changes in their lives, like having a baby, dealing with sad times, or experiencing hormonal changes like .

🩹People who are hurting from difficult things that happened a long time ago (like loss or trauma).

I use different helpful ideas to make sure our time together is just right for you. I also know that everyone's brain works in a unique way, which is great!

How to Get Started
💻I talk to people online using video calls, so you can chat with me from the UK, right where you feel most comfortable.

If you are ready to feel happier, stronger, and more confident, we can have a short, *free* chat first to see if I'm the right helper for you.

My goal is to help you feel less anxious, more grounded, and back in control! Let's talk https://www.chamberswellbeing.co.uk/

Feeling constantly , no matter how much you rest? You’re not alone. The Hays UK 2025 Working Well Report found that 54% of professionals often feel at work — a reminder of just how widespread has become.

If you’re finding it hard to switch off, always chasing “just one more thing,” or feeling emotionally drained, it might be time to pause and explore what’s really going on.

As a qualified counsellor with specialist experience, Lynsey offers compassionate, professional counselling to help you:

✅ Understand why you feel exhausted – explore what’s depleting your energy, from workload pressures to emotional patterns and the impact of chronic stress.
✅ Recognise unhelpful patterns – Identify the beliefs and habits that keep you overworking, such as perfectionism, people-pleasing, or fear of letting others down.
✅ Set healthy boundaries – without guilt, protect your time, and make space for rest and recovery.
✅ Rebuild resilience and joy – Discover practical tools and fresh perspectives to reduce stress and reconnect with what truly matters to you.

Burnout doesn’t have to define you — with the right support, recovery and balance are possible.

💬 Reach out to Lynsey today to take the first step towards feeling more like you again.

Because you don’t have to wait until you’re running on empty to ask for help🩵
