L Knox Counselling

L Knox Counselling I am an experienced person centred counsellor and registered member of BACP, based in Paisley. A space where you are free to be yourself.

As an experienced person centred counsellor I can offer a safe, supportive space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings without judgement or pressure. Therapy can be on a long or short term basis, depending on the needs of the individual. So whether you would like to focus on something specific that may be holding you back, or have time to unpick something of a more complex nature, I wou

ld be alongside to support you in your process. I am currently offering face to face sessions in comfortable surroundings near Paisley town centre, complete with off street parking. Remote sessions are also available via Zoom. A first session would typically last around 20 - 30 minutes and would offer the opportunity to discuss how you want to use therapy for and think about what you want to get out of it. It’s also an opportunity to ask any questions that you may have about the process and to hopefully put you at ease. There is no charge for this initial session. Cost is £40 per session, however concessionary rates are available. Please contact me for any further information or to arrange an appointment.

RUN THE DISHWASHER TWICE.

When I was at one of the lowest points in my life, even getting out of bed felt impossible. I had no energy, no motivation, and was barely surviving.

Once a week, I’d drag myself to therapy. But during one session, I had nothing to say. My therapist asked how my week had been, and all I could muster was, “I dunno, man. Life.”

He wasn’t satisfied. “No, what exactly are you struggling with right now? When you go home after this session, what will be staring you in the face?”

I hesitated, embarrassed by the answer. I wanted something more meaningful to say, something bigger. But the truth was so small. Finally, I admitted, “Honestly? The dishes. It’s stupid, I know. The more I look at them, the more I can’t do them. I’ll have to scrub them first because the dishwasher sucks, and I just can’t stand there and scrub.”

I felt ridiculous. How could a grown woman be undone by dishes? But my therapist didn’t judge. He just nodded and said, *“Run the dishwasher twice.”*

I started to argue that you’re not supposed to, but he cut me off. *“Why not? If your dishwasher sucks and you don’t want to scrub, run it twice. Run it three times. Who cares? There are no rules.”*

His words blew my mind in a way I can’t fully explain.

That day, I went home, threw the dirty dishes in the dishwasher, and ran it three times. It felt like slaying a dragon. The next day, I took a shower lying down. A few days later, I folded my laundry and put it wherever it fit. Suddenly, there were no arbitrary rules holding me back, and I could start accomplishing things again.

Now that I’m in a healthier place, I rinse my dishes, I shower standing up, and I sort my laundry. But back when living felt like a struggle instead of a blessing, I learned one of the most important lessons of my life:

THERE ARE NO RULES. RUN THE DISHWASHER TWICE.
