A new year. A new start. A new chapter. Even a new book.

Why not take some time to notice and give yourself the praise you deserve for the achievements you made last year. No matter how small they may seem, they ALL count. Especially if you achieved them despite experiencing struggles - giving you even greater reason to be proud of yourself!

We can’t change the past, but it does contribute to the person you are today and the strengths and qualities that you now possess. YOU ARE MAGNIFICENT.

Here’s to 2026 💜 📖 💫

To all my clients, past, present and future….
I hope you had a peaceful Christmas.
Why not take this quiet and slow time to think about what you would like to achieve next year. What CBT tools have you learned that can help you achieve these goals?
Let’s work together to make the appropriate changes needed to get there.
I hope 2026 is your best year yet 💜

Happy Birthday to Lighthouse Lanarkshire 💜

The best thing I have ever done, setting up on my own, and spending (what is now in the thousands of) hours doing exactly the below.

I am greatful, humbled and priveleged to have been able to help those who have trusted me enough to share their stories, working in partnership to achieve the goals set and overcome struggles. It really is such an honour.

Here’s to many more years 💜

THE FESTIVE OVERWHELM

Right about now you may be starting to feel the festive overwhelm…
Alongside your extremely busy everyday life, suddenly comes a list of a million things you must achieve in order to be ‘prepared’ for the holidays.
You need to make sure everyone has the perfect gifts,
the house is Christmas card ready,
the festive events are catered for and planned to a tee
and not to forget you must look GREAT too.

Sitting down to make a list can be panic inducing.
You are only one human.
It is not possible to triple your workload and survive.
Something must give and that’s usually your mental wellbeing.

Well let me tell you this…
The festive season is supposed to be a ‘feeling’.
An atmosphere of love, kindness and celebration.
A time of peace, PEACE!
Not stress,
peace.

It should not matter who gets what,
it should not matter what anyone eats,
it should only feel that a door is open
and a house is welcoming,
full of love and ‘goodwill to all’.

It is very hard to break free from the festive binds we have fashioned for ourselves over the years but I think we should.

I think we should strive to remember what the point of all of this is,
Peace.
Love
Goodwill.

Everything else is frosting, if you can, go for it.
But if you are mentally absent because your to-do list is taking up too much head space, then what is the point my friend?

We don’t know how many festive seasons we have been allocated in this life, so let’s not waste another year in stress, burnout and misery.

Whisper to your self over and over, peace, love and goodwill to all, and you will be just fine 💜🙏🏻

“Sometimes,” said Pooh softly, his eyes glistening as he looked up at the stars, “missing someone feels a bit like standing in the middle of the Hundred Acre Wood at night — quiet and full of something you can’t quite see but can always feel.”
He wiped a tear with his paw.
“It doesn’t really go away, you know. The missing. It just becomes part of you — like the way the stars become part of the sky. You can’t take them out, but you can look at them and remember how lovely they are.”
Pooh closed his eyes for a moment and whispered into the wind,
“I hope you know, wherever you are, that I still think of you when the stars come out. Because love doesn’t end, it just learns how to shine differently.”
And as a single tear fell, it sparkled like a tiny star — a quiet reminder that love, once felt, never truly leaves 💜
— Inspired by A. A. Milne’s “Winnie-the-Pooh”

Anyone else sitting thinking how fast 2025 has went? Feels like it was February just yesterday!

We are unable to change the past, but we do have some control over the present and can influence the future.

How do you want your last chapter of 2025 to look like? What positive changes can you make for a better ending to your year so far? It’s never too late 💜💫
