Caercaveral Counselling and Pyschotherapy

Caercaveral Counselling and Pyschotherapy I am an Integrative Counsellor regd member of the BACP based in Plymouth and Denbighshire,North Wale What do I offer at Caercaveral Counselling?

How often have you had something bothering or upsetting you, or just that general feeling of not feeling right? You've gone to tell someone, a friend or family and suddenly they are trying to ‘sort it’ when all you want is to be heard, to be allowed to voice these feelings, hopes, fears, uncertainties without someone judging you or saying I know how you feel. At Caercaveral Counselling I’d like to offer you a space where you can be safely heard, without judgement, where you can just ‘Be’ and we can explore what is happening for you. As a BACP Registered Integrative Counsellor and Psychotherapist, you the client are at the heart of my practice. You are it’s heart. I work with Anxiety, Trauma, Loss, Bereavement, Chronic health conditions such as ME/CFS, Fibromyalgia and Depression. I have experience of working with clients with Asperger's. I specialise in working with historic sexual and physical abuse and work in a way that is as safe as possible for you. I offer 50 minute face to face appointments in rooms and will see clients in their own homes on GP referral. I also offer walk and talk therapy taking advantage to be out in nature. I am offering 50 minute Internet sessions, using Zoom. (I find it feels very fatiguing for more than this amount of time and I want our time together to be effective for you.) The advantage of Internet Counselling is that I can offer this nationwide if you have good Internet access. I also offer 50 minute face to face sessions in a beautiful park in Plymouth or in the natural environs of Denbighshire where we can be in a safe outdoor environment . I also offer face to face sessions in rooms in Plymouth and Llanarmon yn Ial. Please feel free to message me and we can set up a free 15 minute appointment to see if we are a good fit.

THIS IS BEAUTIFUL! YOU MAY WANT TO TAKE THE TIME TO READ IT ❤️
Not only are these words true theatre, they also act as sound advice ❤️

my brain and
heart divorced

a decade ago

over who was
to blame about
how big of a mess
I have become

eventually,
they couldn't be
in the same room
with each other

now my head and heart
share custody of me

I stay with my brain
during the week

and my heart
gets me on weekends

they never speak to one another

- instead, they give me
the same note to pass
to each other every week

and their notes they
send to one another always
says the same thing:

"This is all your fault"

on Sundays
my heart complains
about how my
head has let me down
in the past

and on Wednesday
my head lists all
of the times my
heart has screwed
things up for me
in the future

they blame each
other for the
state of my life

there's been a lot
of yelling - and crying

so,

lately, I've been
spending a lot of
time with my gut

who serves as my
unofficial therapist

most nights, I sneak out of the
window in my ribcage

and slide down my spine
and collapse on my
gut's plush leather chair
that's always open for me

~ and I just sit sit sit sit
until the sun comes up

last evening,
my gut asked me
if I was having a hard
time being caught
between my heart
and my head

I nodded

I said I didn't know
if I could live with
either of them anymore

"my heart is always sad about
something that happened yesterday
while my head is always worried
about something that may happen tomorrow,"
I lamented

my gut squeezed my hand

"I just can't live with
my mistakes of the past
or my anxiety about the future,"
I sighed

my gut smiled and said:

"in that case,
you should
go stay with your
lungs for a while,"

I was confused
- the look on my face gave it away

"if you are exhausted about
your heart's obsession with
the fixed past and your mind's focus
on the uncertain future

your lungs are the perfect place for you

there is no yesterday in your lungs
there is no tomorrow there either

there is only now
there is only inhale
there is only exhale
there is only this moment
there is only breath

and in that breath
you can rest while your
heart and head work
their relationship out."

this morning,
while my brain
was busy reading
tea leaves

and while my
heart was staring
at old photographs

I packed a little
bag and walked
to the door of
my lungs

before I could even knock
she opened the door
with a smile and as
a gust of air embraced me
she said

"what took you so long?"
