Meaningful feedback from a recent client journey 🙏

'I used to bend myself in half to keep the peace. I didn’t even realise how much I abandoned myself until I had a space where I could finally be honest. Jolie helped me feel seen, grounded, and strong enough to set boundaries. For the first time, I trust my own voice.”

For tailored support sessions do feel welcome to enquire and we can chat about your current scenario and what you want to shift, change or strengthen moving forwards.

Counselling with Jolie Compton – Support for Women, Mothers & Creatives

Are you carrying more than you can hold on your own?
Whether it’s relationship struggles, the overwhelm of motherhood, grief, or simply feeling disconnected from yourself, I offer a space where the unspoken can finally be spoken.

I’m a qualified Integrative Counsellor, Therapist and Doula with years of experience supporting women through life’s most tender, complex and transformative seasons. My work is not one-size-fits-all. I bring together counselling, body awareness, creative expression and deep listening to meet you exactly where you are.

Clients often describe my sessions as grounded, real, and spacious... a place to be fully yourself without judgement, where healing and clarity can unfold.

If you’re looking for:

Relief from anxiety, stress, or perfectionism

Support through motherhood, relationships, or life transitions

A safe space to explore your identity, creativity, and desires

Guidance that honours both the everyday struggles and the deeper sacred journey

…then my door is open.

Sessions available locally in Salisbury and online.

Today I was inspired to create a yoga nidra relaxation track for those walking the solo motherhood road.

Let this be your invitation to lie down.
To let your body remember what it feels like to be held,
without doing, fixing, managing or performing.

🧘‍♀️ Yoga Nidra for the Solo Mother’s Heart 💛
This is your invitation to rest, receive, and remember.
A guided Yoga Nidra meditation created especially for solo mothers... for the ones who are strong and tired, responsible and longing, independent yet yearning for softness and connection.

In this 30 min session you will:
✨ Be guided through gentle body sensing and breath awareness
✨ Welcome and balance emotions and beliefs
✨ Remember joy and your unshakable inner presence
✨ Receive a heart prayer for your path

This track is a love letter to your resilience, your tenderness, and your worthiness.

📥 Listen now on sound cloud https://on.soundcloud.com/xBv4UFdoauRhaviNlv
💬 Let me know in the comments if you try it. I’d love to hear how it felt for you.

Or Share it with a solo mother who needs to rest.

Right now I'm excited to be exploring the Havening Techniques@ with people for case studies and feedback is super positive.

" I felt so wild like I’ve been cleaned from the inside out. I’m so me but almost like a different person, it was actually kind of freaking me out! Because it felt so good I didn’t really know what to do with it. Yet I felt like a big weight lifted off my shoulders. Yesterday I felt parts of me become more playful that haven’t been there in ages come back. I definitely feel a big shift for sure."

If you want to explore Havening Techniques® with me get in touch 🙂

Busy work week ahead with clients 😊 and I'm making extra time for new sessions using Havening Techniques™.

The Havening Technique is a psychosensory therapy that utilizes simple touch to the hands, arms and face along with visualization to help individuals release emotional distress and reduce the impact of past traumas.

Havening focuses on calming the brain and creating a sense of safety, promotes relaxation, reduces anxiety, and can be used to positively prepare you for future events and personal development goals.
Turning setbacks into opportunities.

I'm currently offering Havening sessions at an introductory rate whilst building my training case study portfolio. Sessions are around 1.5hrs and I'd be delighted to introduce you to this gentle yet powerful self soothing therapy experience.

Message me if you'd like more info or to take part and we will get a session booked into the diary.

What is a lyric, really?

If you think counselling is just for sadness or anxiety — you're not wrong. And there's so much more.

Recently, I worked with a creative client who felt stuck, torn between working on a house project and recording a track for her solo album. On the surface, she was just tired. But as we slowed down, tuned into the body, and got curious… something deeper showed up.

The block wasn’t about energy or priorities.
It was about the lyric.

What if people misinterpret it?

Through compassionate enquiry, we unravelled the fears and got curious about the specific lyric that was causing tension. I read the line back to her, and we reflected on how true it felt when she wrote it — and how it felt now. The lyric still resonated. It was honest. But she was scared of how it might land with others.

We sat with the fears, gently explored what was at stake, and asked:
What matters more, avoiding a wave or honouring the art?

In the end, by changing just one word of the lyric, she found clarity, authenticity, and peace. And left the session excited to record again.

This is the kind of work I love...
Blending counselling, body awareness, creativity, and coaching to help artists move through resistance and reconnect with their truth.

Art will always be perceived through someone else’s lens.
What matters is how it feels to you.

I can't wait to hear her finished track when it's ready! 💫

Curious to explore your own creative blocks or inner resistance?
