Counselling Psychotherapy & Life Coaching in Pershore & Watersedge Worcestershire.

There are lots of different ‘types’ of counselling. Person-centred - CBT - Psychodynamic - Integrative, are just a few…. Sometimes clients try a ‘type’ that doesn’t suit them, and can put them off future support.
If this has happened to you, don’t give up ….. but when all is said and done …. The power of therapy working, is in the room, the unique relationship and trust between client and therapist. 2 humans in the room. One of which is trained to hold your pain and distress and help to navigate a future way forward. Trust your instincts, and choose the other human you feel comfortable with. Jo

News 🗞️ you can all use….. getting out and about until the end of August. ‘FREE’ if you buy a copy of these 📰 newspapers and get a National Trust day out for a family. You can buy more than one, and have another day out. £1.10 for a weekday paper, but more expensive at £1.80 at the weekend for a Daily Star. Probably want to pick a cooler day for a trip out than today though! Stay safe out there, it’s a scorcher.

Need to reset your nervous system? Cold water 💦 can work. This time 🕰️ of year is a great time to start. I swim at watersedge lake in bishampton. If you are a dragonfly nerd like me, there are loads of them near the edges. Only equipment needed is a float like in the picture (you can borrow one for £3), a sports guardian wristband if you want to be a regular, and anyone new, needs to have a safety briefing. You don’t need a wetsuit. There are lifeguards on duty to keep you safe. And if you’re really lucky 🍀, you might catch a glimpse of the kingfisher, I’ve been looking 👀 for the kingfisher for 2 years and seen it twice in 2 weeks. It really is a great way to literally immerse yourself in nature…. I don’t do a lot of swimming 🏊, more bobbing about watching the wildlife and enjoying a bit of solitude. If you don’t fancy the lake, you can do a cold shower 🚿 (personally I can’t do this!), or a cold 🥶 bath 🛀. Have someone nearby though, as it is a bit of a physical body challenge. The reset still works, and that’s near enough free at home 🏠.

Back on 6th April, I planted my sunflower 🌻 seeds. Look at this beauty now…. Well that’s something that loves 🥰 a heatwave!

I’ve got a new therapy room. Still at the town hall, and loving 🥰 the ‘lofty’ room upstairs. It’s lighter, more spacious, and very quiet….. I say quiet, the peregrine falcon family can be heard occasionally in the distance with the window 🪟 open.
Still accessible to everyone, choice of the stairs or I accompany clients in the lift 🛗 if preferred. On hot 🥵 days, it’s still nice and cool 😎. I’m so lucky 🍀 to be working in such a historical building in the centre of town.

My new ‘elevated’ 🪟 view from my counselling room at the town hall from today…. It’s lovely and cool 😎 up here (there is lift access 🛗 also). More pics to follow later 👋

My plaque has arrived for my bench in St Andrews gardens. Hoping to encourage those that sit on it, to read it and inspire a thought 💭 Personally, I remind myself of this very old ‘poem’ all the time….. been around for centuries.

So this morning 🌅 been on a ‘sleep recovery ❤️‍🩹working with clients’ seminar. These hot 🥵 evenings, sleeping 💤- it can be a challenge. I liked the writing ✍️ and journalling 📔 suggestions to get those thoughts 💭 on a page, and helps rest your mind. Did you know that your breathing will regulate when doing this? Often all this stuff is out of our awareness….. and here’s the thing…. I HAD to do journalling as part of my training. I really disliked it at first, and couldn’t see the point tbh. But now it’s part of my weekly mindfulness activities and really feel the benefits. Give it a go! Treat yourself to a nice journal and a pen 🖊️….. or you can do voice memos 📝 if writing ✍️ is not your thing.

Today, I did a talk 🗣️ to Pershore Pathfinders on counselling, psychotherapy and life coaching. I’ll be honest, I had to push myself out of my comfort zone, as I’m not a polished guest speaker 🔈, but feel very passionate about the benefits of therapy. I got to meet Dan the guide dog 🦮 too…. Pathfinders is a friendly group for support for people with eye 👁️ sight impairment or loss. So thank you 🙏 Sue for inviting me. Here’s the link 🔗 if anyone wants some info ℹ️ on the group. They meet twice a month at Pershore Yown Hall https://www.pershorepathfinders.com/

Lovely opening of the sensory garden in St Andrews this evening. So much hard work by the Pershore college students and volunteers. Also in collaboration with Pershore Town Council and Pershore Placeboard. Looking forward to seeing all the plants 🌱 grow over the summer. My donated bench needs a bit of teak oil, but in the meantime, pick a seat and take the time for some ‘being and not doing’.

05/06/2025

My mindfulness reflection bench has arrived. Need to order the plaque, and tomorrow the bench will hopefully be in place in St Andrews gardens in the new sensory garden for anyone to sit and enjoy. At 5.30pm tomorrow (Friday) is the official opening. More pictures tomorrow then…..

Worth a thought 💭? Next time 🕰️ you are worried about something 😟….. afterwards challenge yourself to compare overthinking habits with the picture.
