Christmas can be a difficult time for many people.

Some feel lonely. Some feel stressed or pulled in different directions. Some are missing someone and find the season harder because of it.

You might see everyone else celebrating and wonder why you feel the way you do.

I have written a new blog that talks honestly about this.
It looks at why Christmas can feel challenging and shares simple ideas that might make the days a bit easier to manage.

If this time of year feels tough for you, I hope the blog helps you feel understood.
You are not on your own.

If you’re struggling, please remember that you are not alone.

If you, or someone you know is finding life tough, these brilliant charities help. 💜

Many people think EMDR therapy is only for PTSD, but that’s not true.
You don’t need to have lived through a major traumatic event for EMDR to help.

Sometimes it’s the smaller, ongoing stresses, criticism, pressure, loss, or past experiences that never fully settled,that keep us feeling stuck. EMDR helps your brain process those experiences so you can feel calmer and more present.

Read the latest blog to find out how EMDR can support healing, even if you don’t have PTSD:

Can I Have EMDR If I Don’t Have PTSD?

Ever had a thought that felt so real it made you question who you are?

Maybe:
“What if I hurt someone?”
“What if I’m attracted to something I shouldn’t be?”
“What if I’ve already done something awful and just don’t remember?”

If you’ve experienced this, it’s not because you want these thoughts. It’s because your mind is treating an imagined possibility as if it were real.

In Inference-Based CBT, this is called inferential confusion, when imagination starts to outweigh evidence.

You might know there’s no proof you’ve done something wrong… but your mind says, “What if?”

So you start to check, analyse, replay memories, or avoid things, all to feel certain again.

The problem isn’t the thought itself.
It’s the reasoning that gives that thought power.

I-CBT helps you step back from that reasoning process, to see how the story began, and how easily the imagination can blur into fear.

It’s not about exposing yourself to the fear or trying to prove it’s untrue.

It’s about rebuilding trust in your own reasoning, so doubt no longer feels like danger.
If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone.

And there’s a way to understand these thoughts that doesn’t rely on fighting or analysing them.

Some days it feels like your brain has a to-do list that never stops adding items.

Before you finish one thought, three more worries cut in.
It’s exhausting, and it’s hard to explain to people who don’t live inside it.

If this sounds familiar, try noticing one tiny thing that is actually OK right now.
A quiet minute.
A cup of tea that’s still warm.
A small proof that the world isn’t falling apart this second.

It won’t solve everything, but it can give your mind a moment to breathe.
