Listening is more than hearing words. It’s noticing emotion, free from judgment, and allowing someone to feel seen and valued. It can be a lifeline for someone struggling, a quiet act of kindness that makes a real difference. 👂💚

On this National Day of Listening, consider who might need your full attention today. Put your devices aside, take a deep breath, and give someone the gift of your presence. This includes yourself, tuning in to your own feelings, needs, and boundaries matters just as much.

Therapy can extend this gift of listening even further. In counselling, you are truly heard without judgment. It provides a safe space to explore your thoughts and emotions, gain clarity, develop coping strategies, and build resilience. It’s a place to be supported, understood, and guided towards greater emotional wellbeing.

💙 Sometimes, the greatest support we can offer, to others or ourselves, is simply being present, fully and openly.

Today, we are thinking of all those who have lost someone to su***de, for the hearts that carry love, grief, and unanswered questions all at once.

💚International Survivors of Su***de Loss Day is a gentle reminder that you are not alone in your loss. The journey through grief can be complex and painful, filled with waves of emotion that come and go without warning. There is no right way to grieve and no timeline for healing.

Losing someone to su***de can bring up feelings of guilt, anger, confusion, and deep sadness. These emotions are natural responses to something incredibly hard to understand. It’s okay to talk about them, and it’s okay to ask for support.

If today feels heavy, take things slowly. Light a candle, share a memory, or simply sit in quiet reflection. Sometimes, just being present with your feelings is an act of courage.

💙 If you or someone you know is struggling, please reach out for help. Support is available, and you never have to face this alone.

Social media can be a wonderful space for connection, inspiration, and learning, but it can also become overwhelming when we’re surrounded by negativity, comparison, or energy that doesn’t align with where we are now. 📱

💙 National Unfriend Day invites us to take a mindful look at our online spaces, not from a place of judgment, but from self-care. Notice how you feel after scrolling.

Do the people you follow uplift, inspire, and support you? Or do they leave you feeling drained or not enough?

It’s also worth reflecting on who has access to you, your posts, your energy, your time. You have every right to set boundaries, mute, unfollow, or unfriend without guilt. Protecting your mental and emotional space is not unkind, it’s an act of self-respect.

💚📱Your social media should feel like a reflection of who you are becoming, not a reminder of what weighs you down.

Today is a beautiful reminder of the power of kindness, the gentle force that can soften hearts, lift spirits, and create connection in even the smallest moments. 💙

Kindness doesn’t have to be grand or loud. It can be a smile to a stranger, a message to a friend who’s struggling, or the simple act of giving yourself a little more grace when things feel hard.

We never truly know what someone else is carrying. A small act of kindness can be the light someone needs to feel seen, valued, and less alone.

💚 And don’t forget, kindness begins with you. Speak to yourself gently, honour your needs, and give yourself the same care and understanding you offer others.

This week reminds us how important it is to be kind, not just with our words, but in how we treat others and ourselves.

💚 Bullying isn’t always confined to the school playground. It can show up in adulthood too, in workplaces, relationships, families, and even online. Sometimes it looks like manipulation, control, exclusion, or constant criticism. Other times, it’s the silent weight of feeling unseen or unworthy because of how someone has treated you.

The impact of bullying does stay with us long after the moment has passed. It can affect self-esteem, confidence, and the ability to trust others. It can shape how we see ourselves and how safe we feel in the world.
But healing is possible. Through awareness, compassion, and support, those wounds can begin to soften. Talking therapy can help you understand and release the pain, rebuild confidence, and rediscover your sense of self-worth.

No one deserves to feel small. Everyone deserves to feel safe, respected, and valued, exactly as they are. 💙

Thinking of all those who gave their lives in service and all who have been affected by conflict, both in the past and today. 💚

For some, today can stir deep emotions, including grief, pride, sadness, or reflection.
It’s okay to feel however you need to feel.

💙 Take a moment to be still, breathe, and hold space for remembrance in your own way, whether through silence, prayer, reflection, or gratitude.

“At the going down of the sun and in the morning, we will remember them.” 🌺

Today is a gentle reminder to pause, breathe, and check in with yourself. 🧠💭

Stress is a normal part of life, but when it becomes constant, it can start to affect our mind, body, and relationships in ways that we may not even realise. Stress can present in many different ways, through our bodies causing us physical pain or emotional and mental strains.

💚 Give yourself permission to pause and take a moment to think about what your stresses may be or look like.

You might be:

• Feeling overwhelmed or exhausted
• Struggling to switch off
• Becoming more irritable or withdrawn
• Having trouble sleeping or focusing.

✨ Remember, feeling stressed doesn’t mean you’re failing, it’s a sign that your mind and body need some care and space to recharge, which is completely normal.

Here are a few simple ways to manage stress day to day:

🌿 Take mindful breaks: pause, stretch, or step outside for a few deep breaths.
🕯️ Prioritise rest: sleep and downtime are not luxuries, they’re necessities.
📖 Journal your thoughts: getting worries out of your head and onto paper can bring clarity.
🤝 Talk to someone: sharing how you feel can make things lighter.
💧 Nourish your body: eat, hydrate, and move in ways that support your energy.
🧘‍♀️ Try relaxation techniques: meditation, gentle yoga, or grounding exercises can help calm the nervous system.

💙 If stress is starting to feel overwhelming, counselling can offer a safe space to explore what’s happening beneath the surface and learn new ways to cope.

Movember is more than just growing a moustache, it’s about growing awareness for men's mental health. 👨🏻🧠

Every November, men across the country decide to grow a moustache to raise money and awareness for men’s health, from physical wellbeing to the often-unspoken struggles with mental and emotional wellbeing.

💚 Su***de in men is the primary cause of death for men under 50. Too many men still feel they need to “man up” instead of reaching out, but real strength comes from honesty, vulnerability, and connection.

💬 Talking about what’s going on inside isn’t a sign of weakness, it’s an act of courage.

Many men turn to therapy for many reasons, including:

• Stress, burnout, or work pressure
• Relationship challenges or family difficulties
• Low mood or depression
• Anxiety and overthinking
• Grief or loss
• Anger or frustration
• Identity, purpose, or life changes

Please know that whatever you’re facing, support is available and you don’t have to go through it alone.

💙 You’re allowed to slow down. You’re allowed to feel. You’re allowed to heal, whether you’re male or female.

What Can Counselling Do For You? 💬

Many people think counselling is only for crises, but it’s also a supportive space to:

💚 Navigate life transitions and big changes
💙 Process difficult emotions or trauma
💚 Improve self-esteem and confidence
💙 Manage stress, anxiety, or low mood
💚 Develop healthier coping strategies

Counselling is a safe, non-judgemental space where your feelings are validated and your growth is supported.

You don’t have to wait until things feel “too much”, seeking support is a sign of strength, not weakness.

As a Counsellor, I will walk alongside you, helping you explore your emotions and find balance in everyday life.

Never underestimate the power of a kind word, a listening ear, or a simple act of care. The smallest gestures can bring comfort, hope, and strength to someone who needs it most.

✨ A smile can brighten a stranger’s day.
✨ A message of encouragement can remind someone they’re not alone.
✨ A moment of compassion can plant the seed for healing and change.

You may never fully see the ripple effect of your actions, but know this: every act of kindness matters. 🌍💙💚

Today, and every day, choose kindness, as you have no idea the difference that understanding, empathy, and support can make in someone’s life.
