Your brain is constantly shaped by your experiences. Different pathways may form, whereas others may become dormant.

Neuroplasticity allows the brain to create new pathways and strengthen existing ones. This enables healthy parts of the brain to compensate for the altered areas…

Healing comes in many forms ❤️

This isn’t an “ Instagram worthy” photo but what it represents is TRULLY amazing …..

This represents an hour of shared time with a 12 year old, who quite frankly is amazing…who has so much to offer the world , yet is so unsure of the path she has before her, because the path she has already trodden, has been rather testing….

What I think is amazing is the representation of feelings, emotions and self understanding…. The ability to without realising, unfold and unpick each area of life, through the placement of pieces of wool…

For some young people, it’s hard to talk, so as the adults it’s our job to hold space, and interact with them, through observing, listening and following their lead…

When we follow the young person, the insight is quite honestly mind blowing….

These pieces of wool, held space for conversations around:

- friendships
- family relationships
- emotion based school avoidance
- self harm
- self worth
- sadness
- loss

To name just a few… however this has taken two weeks to unpick… what looks like mindless cutting of wool, led to conversation, care, kindness and building of a trusting partnership…we must never rush the process…

with the right space and nurturing, the journey will unfold in its own unique way for each young person

This may look messy, but to me it’s amazing what is represents, placed on the grubby school chair… this still sits ready for our next meeting, where I shall hold space and better understand this most amazing of souls ❤️

This may be an unpopular opinion….but….

I don’t believe in “ positive vibes only”..this quote says it perfectly….

Humans experience a whole range of emotions and this is absolutely ok. In my opinion it’s a very difficult expectation to think a child, young person or adult can be positive ALL the time.

Don’t get me wrong I love finding the positives in situations, ( its helped me through some soul destroying situations), but often this can only come after we’ve allowed ourselves the freedom to explore the feelings and emotions around that situation…

There is no right or wrong response, even if someone else thinks there is…. We can only respond how OUR bodies and minds know how…

It’s not about suppressing our emotions and being positive all the time, it’s about finding ways to recreate our journey through understanding and nurturing who we are and what we are feeling….

It’s about creating a connection with ourselves; whereby we can feel those emotions creeping up on us, and finding coping mechanisms, not to ignore or push away our feelings, but to connect, ground ourselves and work through them

It’s a tough time out there for our children and young people. The world is full of endless messages, expectations and pressures…. Being positive all the time just cannot be done, I think we should normalise that, so that they know it’s ok to express how we truly feel ❤️

Welcome to my new therapy account:

Who am I and what do I offer?

I am a 40 year old mum of two (14&11), our third angel baby resides in our hearts.

I have been running my since 2017 and especially love working with children and young people therapeutically under the trees.

I have spent the last 18months training in:

• NLP & EFT for children
• BWRT LEVEL 1
• REIKI ( available from October)

I am an advocate of childrens rights and their rights to inclusion, through play, creativity and our natural world. Through lived experiences I have created strong beliefs and values, which sit at the centre of all I do.

I am currently working alongside the WONDERFUL Solihull Down Syndrome Support Group, who I absolutely adore and who continue to teach me about true acceptance and love.

I believe in nurturing young souls and creating connections with our ourselves and each other, through time in nature.

I aim to create a kind, nurturing and calm environment for children, young people and their families…. Empowering them to feel free to simply be.

I am looking forward to growing my therapeutic practices and meeting children, young people and carers, who may feel a little lost or helpless, or who simply just need a friendly face.

Over the coming weeks I will be adding my website, booking systems and workshops.

In the meantime if you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact me here.
