Christmas decorations in the therapy room, yes or no? What are your thoughts?

I don’t usually decorate for any festive season as sometimes it can be helpful to have a break from the reminder of what can be difficult time for some.

National Grief Awareness Week
Grief isn’t something we “get over.” It’s something we learn to live alongside in our own way, in our own time.

This week is a reminder that grief takes many shapes: loss of a person, a relationship, a future we imagined, or a version of ourselves. However it shows up for you, your experience is real and worthy of care.

If you’re finding this time difficult, you’re not alone. Reaching out can be a powerful first step in making sense of what hurts.

If you’d like support, I offer a compassionate space to explore grief at your pace or for free more urgent support you could contact Cruse’s helpline on 0808 808 1677.

Today marks a step forward for men’s mental health. The UK Government has launched its first-ever National Men’s Health Strategy, acknowledging for the first time that men and boys face unique health challenges and committing to action.

Your voice matters. We all play a part in creating cultures where men’s mental health is taken seriously. Let’s open up the conversation:

➡️ If you’re a man or know a man who found help, what made the difference for you?

👇 Drop your thoughts or experiences below. let’s learn from each other.

“Communication leads to community, that is, to understanding, intimacy and mutual valuing.” – Rollo May

Genuine connection arises when we speak from the heart and are met with presence. In psychotherapy, we practice this: learning to listen not to respond, but to understand.

Who in your life do you feel truly seen by?

“To speak what you think is to speak what is.” – Carol Gilligan

The act of speaking your truth, especially when it disrupts the norm can be perceived as radical. Feminist-informed therapy honours voice as a vehicle for liberation.

When was the last time you truly told your story?

“Life can be lived one of two ways: either as an opportunity for growth or as a problem to be avoided.” – Rollo May

In the therapeutic space, we explore how we meet life’s challenges. Do we brace ourselves against the discomfort, or open to what it may teach us?

Growth may begin the moment we stop pathologising our pain and start listening to its message.

“When we are no longer able to change a situation, we are challenged to change ourselves.” – Viktor Frankl

Loss invites us into a space we never asked to enter. In that quiet ache, we confront what is no longer within our control.

What part of you is asking to be met in your grief?

“Anxiety is the dizziness of freedom.” – Søren Kierkegaard

Anxiety often signals possibility and sometimes threat. From a humanistic lens, it reflects the weight of choice, of becoming.

What if your anxiety isn’t something to overcome but a sign you are standing on the edge of your own potential?

“No person is your friend who demands your silence.” – Simone de Beauvoir

In therapy, we often examine the implicit beliefs we’ve made: to stay small, stay silent, stay agreeable. Healing begins when we question who benefits from these and start to find our voice.

What might it feel like to give yourself permission to have a voice?
