Golowhe Therapy

Golowhe Therapy Golowhe: Cornish for ‘to glow’, ‘light up’, ‘to shine’. Bespoke counselling & ecotherapy in Cornwall. Welcome to Golowhe Therapy. Thank you.

Golowhe is a Cornish word meaning ‘to glow’, ‘to light up’, ‘to illuminate’, ‘to shine’… I believe we all have the ability to shine, and sometimes we need support to find the light again in the darkness. As a qualified counsellor trained in the person-centred approach and with over decade of experience working with and in the outdoors in a variety of woodland & educational settings, I can offer sessions in person and online, along with opportunity to use nature and the outdoors to facilitate our relationship. 'Walk and talk' sessions in variety of locations in mid-Cornwall, or use of private site based at Choose Nature CIC, Carthew. Visit my website for more information.

Liminal spaces… 🌅

Being drawn to explore more of the liminal spaces - these are those in between, the not quite there, the once was and now not yet zones that we can identify with… and these can be both on physical, natural and personal levels… ✨

This might be where we find ourselves now in the changing of the seasons (it’s still winter and yet spring is calling more strongly to us)… the soft twilight times between night and day (and that might include our transitional states between being awake and asleep)… the spaces we travel through from one location or activity to another (and do you engage or notice these on the way or simply pass on by?)… and where we find ourselves on our journey in life (perhaps in a particular life stage, career change, event or milestone)… 🌀 ✨

They are the spaces between states. The margins to thresholds. The pause between chapters. The gap between steps. And they are also there to be embraced… 📖

Recognising and owning our liminal spaces can feel empowering - especially when they are often avoided or rushed as the unknowns of the in-betweens can make us feel unsettled, vulnerable, uncomfortable, fearful, uncertain…
Yet making time to sit in and with them can offer great opportunities for transformation and growth 🌱 🦋 If we take the time to notice we can harness learning and compassion, understand and trust ourselves more, grow resilience, build confidence, increase creativity, and allow for changes that can help us thrive… ✨

Liminal spaces are often overlooked and avoided (and sometimes we’re too occupied on the past or rushing to the destination/goal that we forget about the now)… Like the caterpillar accepting and embracing the process for transformation, we too can invite ourselves to be more present 🐛 🦋 Notice, feel and experience the liminal spaces, the moments in between and the processes of thresholds and see what they mean for us… 🌙 ✨

Unfolding… 🌿
“Learning to move at the pace life reveals itself, petal by petal…” 🙏

May this resonate with you as it has done for me as we step into the final week of February… Winter is slowly losing it’s grip and Spring is beckoning us forwards - let us unfold into her as we notice the signs in nature that show us we are right on time and right where we need to be… ✨ 🌙

Bloomscrolling… 🌺
When the world, the weather and season, and sometimes life can feel dark and heavy, why not try this “conscious alternative to doomscrolling” and find some glimmers of joy to lighten your day…👇 🌼 🙏 🌙 ✨

When you can see, what do you see or observe? What do you notice? Do you depend fully on this one sense or does it knowingly overpower the others? 👁️ Now close your eyes…
In a world designed for the sighted, it can be hard to imagine or understand the challenges faced by those with vision loss or blindness…

As an accredited sight loss counsellor with RNIB supporting ISightCornwall, it was a different and welcomed start to my week to receive some additional guiding training (thank you Sophie!) this morning - and a treat to do this by the sea in Charlestown! ⚓️ 🌊 This will mean that those wanting to be supported in the outdoors can do so, continuing to ensure sessions are always for the client and meeting their needs, and that we can safely navigate new areas together 🙏 🌙 ✨

“The only way to master love is to practice love…” 💕
~ Don Miguel Ruiz

Love is more than a feeling or a natural state or even a right to receive… love is something we can give and share, grow and nurture, have patience with and dedicate to… love is an intention and an action… and love (for self and others) requires practice… 💕 🌙 ✨

Sharing one of my latest updates with you… ✨

I am currently studying and training to become a qualified Supervisor… this will mean I will be able to provide a supportive Supervision space for reflection, maintaining ethical standards and enabling learning so that we as professionals can grow and practices be enhanced… it also means offering a space where emotionally you can feel heard and restored…

“The expectation that we can be immersed in suffering and loss daily and not be touched by it is as unrealistic as expecting to be able to walk through water without getting wet…” ☔️ ✨
~ Dr Naomi Rachel Remen

Are you a qualified practising counsellor?
Or a trainee counsellor on placement?
Would you be interested in accessing additional supervision whilst I am training?

✨ As a requirement of the course, I am seeking counselling supervisees to share sessions with to gain experience. Interested? Read below 👇 or visit my website to get in touch… ✨

Whilst training, all sessions will be conducted online for a fixed period at a significantly reduced session fee rate. We can have a conversation together (free no obligation) to discuss options further: www.golowhetherapy.co.uk
Thank you 🙏 🌙 ✨

It’s Children’s Mental Health Week 💛 The theme for 2026 is 'This is My Place', with the aim to support the systems around young people to help them feel they belong…

Starting this month is this new teen group for St Austell supporting bereaved young people at The House Young People Cornwall 👇 and I will also be attending to help where I can ✨

If you know of a young person who might benefit from this, do spread the word and get in contact with Penhaligons Friends 🙏 🌙 ✨

New Trauma Informed Support for Sexual Violence Survivors in Cornwall
A new sexual abuse support model funded by OPCC, NHS England and Cornwall Council is launching this week.
Designed to make it easier for survivors of all ages to get the help they need. The approach brings services together so support is joined up, trauma informed, and easier to access.
• In Cornwall, The Women’s Centre Cornwall is leading the partnership delivering The Oak Service – offering therapeutic support for all adult survivors of sexual violence and sexual abuse.
• Children and young people will be supported by CLEAR trauma therapy and counselling, working alongside partners including Konnect Communities, Intercom Trust, Olive Project, and Pegasus Men’s Wellbeing.
These services will be fully available from April.
To find out more about the oak service please visit their website: www.oakservice.org.uk or phone: 01208 220381

To contact NHS Sexual Assault Referral Centre call: 0300 303 4626

Anyone else been talking about the weather recently…? ☔️ 🌬️ ⛅️ If so, you’re not alone… research conducted last year by the Met Office showed that we spend an average of 56 hours (that’s over two days) talking about the weather during a year, and at least 60% of us use it for starting conversations…

And for some, it’s more than providing the conversation topic or forecast following. It’s the feelings and emotions that arise with it - maybe the dread or anxieties of storms, the frustrations of drought impacts, or the hopelessness of wider world events… 🌍 💦 And regardless if you believe in climate change or not, the weather is undeniably an intrinsic part of nature that continually changes and challenges us and the environment… 🌡️ 🌞

Still an emerging area, Climate Psychology is an acknowledgement and exploration into these thoughts and feelings (and many more)… including bringing relevant terms into our language, such as ‘eco-emotions’ to describe the range of emotions linked to the environment, climate and nature… ❄️

We are nature… we are connected, influenced and impacted by natural events (such as the weather and climate)… and it’s ok to feel whatever we need to feel about it and share this if we want to…🌙 ✨

Time to Talk Day is happening on Thursday 5th February 👇 It is the nation’s biggest mental health conversation and an opportunity to not just talk, but to come together, listen and support 👇 🌙 ✨

Support Cornwall Mind this Time to Talk Day!

is the nation’s biggest mental health conversation. It’s a day for all of us to come together to talk, listen and change lives. It’s happening on Thursday 5th February.

Join in the conversation and support better mental health in Cornwall. We need your help to encourage even more conversations this year, and help raise vital funds for mental health support in our local communities.

There are lots of ways you can fundraise for Cornwall Mind on Time to Talk Day. By hosting a fundraiser, you won’t just be helping to break the stigma – your contributions will directly support those who need it most.

Get your workplace, community group or school involved! You could host a bake sale, organise a book swap, or have a coffee morning. Other great ideas include an office quiz, a fancy dress day, or even a shared lunch.

And don’t worry, our friendly fundraising team is on hand to offer support and inspiration for your Time to Talk Day event.
