Every child and teenager deserves a space where they feel heard, understood, and supported. For this young client, therapy has been a place to build confidence, resilience, and emotional wellbeing, skills that will stay with her for life.

💬 “I wanted to take a moment to thank you for the support and care you’ve given my daughter. The progress she’s made since beginning therapy with you has been amazing, and it’s been wonderful to see her grow in confidence, resilience, and overall well-being. I am grateful for the safe and encouraging space you’ve created for her to open up and work through her challenges.
Thank you for the positive impact you’ve had on her mental health and for helping her develop the tools she needs to thrive.”

Creating a safe, compassionate environment is at the heart of everything I do. Whether a client is learning to manage anxiety, build confidence, or navigate change, the goal is always to help them feel supported and capable of growth.

If your child or teen is finding things difficult, therapy can help them rediscover their confidence and learn tools for life.

A new year doesn’t mean you need to reinvent yourself.

This is a time to set intentions that feel kind and achievable, not resolutions that create pressure. Real change comes from compassion, not criticism.

Intentions are about direction, not demands. They focus on how you want to feel and live, rather than ticking off rigid goals. Try gentle aims such as:
“I want to care for my mind and body.”
“I’ll be patient with myself as I grow.”
“I’ll make time for rest, not just productivity.”

You are allowed to take things slowly. Progress doesn’t have to be perfect to be meaningful. 💛

Resistance training (RT) isn’t just about strength. It’s about rebuilding confidence, balance, and connection.

Alongside therapy, RT can play a valuable role in reducing symptoms of depression. As physical strength grows, emotional resilience often follows.

Psychological benefits:
RT helps improve self-efficacy, the sense that you are capable and in control. Each session builds a feeling of mastery that directly reduces helplessness and low self-esteem.
The structure and consistency of training support behavioural activation, helping to break the cycle of withdrawal that depression can cause.

Social and physical benefits:
In supervised or group settings, RT provides accountability and encouragement, easing loneliness and isolation. Physically, it improves sleep, energy, and overall wellbeing. Feeling stronger in your body can create a real sense of mental clarity and hope.

How it works in the brain:
Resistance training helps rebalance the stress and reward systems, reducing overactivity in the HPA axis (the body’s stress response). It also enhances neuroplasticity, allowing the brain to adapt, recover, and regulate emotions more effectively.

Together, these biological and psychological effects create a foundation for emotional healing, complementing therapy and supporting long-term wellbeing. 💛

It’s okay if Christmas feels hard.

While the season often celebrates joy and togetherness, it can also bring sadness, loss, or loneliness. The pressure to feel festive can make those emotions even heavier.

You might be grieving someone you love, missing a familiar routine, or simply feeling disconnected from the energy around you. Whatever you’re experiencing, it’s valid.

Try to find small ways to bring yourself comfort, a walk outside, a comforting drink, or time spent in quiet reflection. Even gentle pauses can help your mind and body find stillness.

You don’t have to pretend to be okay. Letting yourself feel what’s real is part of healing. You deserve peace and care, exactly as you are. 💛

Did you know Mike is also a Level 3 Personal Trainer?

He trained three years ago so he could prescribe exercise alongside therapy, helping clients improve both their physical and mental wellbeing.

Research shows that resistance training (RT) can significantly reduce symptoms of depression. Biologically, it helps the brain and body work in harmony:

It increases serotonin, dopamine, and norepinephrine, which are often lower in depression.

It triggers endorphins and endocannabinoids, improving mood and reducing pain.

It boosts BDNF, a key growth factor that supports neuroplasticity and brain repair.

It helps regulate cortisol and increase anabolic hormones like testosterone and IGF-1, improving energy and mood stability.

It reduces inflammation linked with depression, promoting a more balanced stress response.

Resistance training can complement therapy, supporting both emotional regulation and motivation through physical change.

You don’t need to lift heavy weights to experience the benefits. Start small, be consistent, and notice how your mood and energy shift over time. 💛

Family gatherings can be full of warmth, laughter, and connection, but they can also be challenging.

It is common to feel anxious around family, especially when old patterns or expectations reappear. The mix of emotions that come with Christmas can make it harder to stay calm and grounded.

Before heading into family events, try to pause and check in with yourself. Ask, “What do I need to feel steady today?” That might mean taking breaks, stepping outside, or setting gentle boundaries if conversations become uncomfortable.

If tension rises, slow your breathing and focus on your surroundings. Notice what you can see, hear, and feel. This simple grounding technique helps your nervous system return to a calmer state.

You do not have to navigate family dynamics perfectly. You only need to take small steps to protect your peace. 💛

Rest is not a reward, it is a requirement.

In busy seasons, it can feel difficult to slow down. You might tell yourself there is too much to do or that rest can wait. But your body and mind cannot function at their best when they are running on empty.

Rest helps regulate your nervous system, reduce anxiety, and improve focus. It is not laziness or avoidance, it is a form of self-preservation.

Try to give yourself permission to pause. Take a short walk, sit quietly with a cup of tea, or simply breathe before moving to the next task. These moments of stillness send your brain a powerful message: it is safe to slow down.

You do not need to wait until you are exhausted to take a break. Resting now helps you stay balanced later. 💛

The festive season can bring warmth, but it can also bring pressure to do, to please, and to keep everyone happy.

When we feel anxious, that pressure can turn into guilt. Guilt for saying no. Guilt for resting. Guilt for not feeling as festive as we should.

But your worth is not measured by how much you do. Saying no, resting, and setting boundaries are not selfish choices, they are acts of self-care.

Before you agree to something, pause and ask yourself, “Will this add calm or stress?” Choosing rest or simplicity does not mean you are missing out. It means you are protecting your peace. 💛

The festive season can be both comforting and challenging.

While it brings chances to connect and celebrate, it can also bring pressure to socialise, to perform, or to feel happy when you might not.

If you find Christmas events difficult, know that you are not alone. Anxiety often shows up around expectations, unfamiliar situations, or simply being busier than usual.

Try to build moments of calm where you can. Step outside for air, spend time with people who feel grounding, or give yourself permission to leave early if it helps.

You are allowed to enjoy this season in your own way and at your own pace. It does not need to look perfect to be meaningful. 💛

| Grief is not just about sadness. It can also bring fear, restlessness, and anxiety. When someone we love is gone, our sense of safety and predictability can be shaken. The body’s stress response can stay switched on, leaving us feeling tense, sleepless, or on edge.

If you have been grieving and noticed anxiety alongside it, know that this is a normal response. Your mind and body are trying to adjust to a world that feels different.

Gentle steps can help:
💬 Talk to someone you trust
🕯️ Keep routines simple and grounding
🌤️ Breathe slowly when anxiety rises
🛏️ Allow yourself rest and patience

Grief has no timeline, and healing does not mean forgetting. It means finding small moments of steadiness as you move through it. You do not have to do that alone. 💛
