Willow Therapy Tring

Willow Therapy Tring A nurturing confidential space. Offering Counselling for Adults Children Teens Couples and Families. Willow Therapy is unique. Aling with Parent support sessions.

We are a private service located in Tring. We offer a haven of tranquillity tucked away off the bustling Tring High street. My aim is to offer emotional and holistic support to clients when life becomes challenging. People approach Willow Therapy knowing that they are entering a calming nurturing and safe environment. We offer counselling to adults children teens couples and families. The room is beautifully furnished to offer comfortable seating within a non clinical room. Working with children and adults we can use creative play ranging from dolls houses, soft toys, games and creative arts to natural stones and crystals. We work within the many areas of mental health and wellbeing. Working integratively we access Mindfulness, CBT and a psychodynamic approach to support clients. Willow has a small team of highly experienced and qualified counsellors who are dedicated to continued learning in order to provide best practice. We currently offer Room, zoom and telephone and sessions. When working I often draw on my past roles as a clinical practitioner specialising in palliative care and working with families as well as my work within holistic settings. I originally trained as a clinical aromatherapist and neuromuscular practitioner going on to teach. I then started my journey into counselling adding Family therapy and then my supervisor Diploma to support other counsellors in their work. Willow offers a high standard of support in a beautiful space. I'm proud to be the founder of a business that offers support to a growing local community taking GP and private referrals to strengthen mental health awareness. All counsellors are BACP affiliated and fully DBS checked and insured.

How Do clothes make you feel
Confident
Cosy
Conspicuous
Fearful
Vibrant
Do you shy away from colour

I Did for years ❤️
I didn't want the limelight
I didn't like the attention
Muted tones slid under the radar
I slotted in sweetly to the sidelines
Nothing to see here meant no judgement

Then something happened
I started wearing Red when I hit 50
And felt powerful and positive
I stepped into Me and was happy
Being Seen and Being heard
I stopped worrying what others thought

What we wear can be representational
Of so much we learned in childhood

I was often frowned upon
For the tutu and wellies combo
As a 6 year old dancing through life
As a teen I was often criticised for choices
That all led to quitening myself
For fear of judgement
A need to blend in arose

But now I'm embracing Colour
I'm leading the way in being seen
And liking the authenticity of self

How can you be seen today
What do your clothes say
Mine say Warmth Love and Hello
Softness Nurturing and Compassion ❤️
Loving ourselves comes in many guises

I got dressed in a Rush today
It was my Bean Afternoon
I play Granny He plays Cutie ❤️
He teaches me Mindfulness
I learn listen and Grow

The sun was out
I pulled out the White trousers again
Refusing to believe in Autumnal vibes!
Then shoved on winter Boots and socks!

As I hovered by the door pram in hand
I did a double take at my feet
Bu**er it boots and white pants look silly
I heard a voice in my head say critically
What do you think you look like it cackled

But something magical happened
I spoke back firmly and swiftly
Oh bu**er Off who gives a s**t
If I want to walk out
With knickers on my head I will!!
That critical internal parent disappeared

You see we often allow the critical voice to win
Keeping us hidden in shadows pleasing others

The reality is no one cares
I hit 50 and sought out quirkiness and colour
I stopped caring what others thought
And started being authentic odd and me!
And good things started happening
I attracted more quirky people
Who also love their uniqueness

So please embrace all that you are
Never worry what others may think
You are Unique and Beautiful as You ❤️

Next I'll be in wellies shorts and a jumper!!
Particularly with menapausal heat rising
But no knickers on the head yet!!

What a Pot ❤️
For anyone who believes in manifestation
And a Nod towards childhood fears unmasked

Yesterday I cooked soup
I said how I'd Love a Le Creuset Pot
But as they cost a bomb I'd wait patiently

As I walked this morning
My neighbour had a pile of pots
Outside their front door
A sign saying - Down sizing having a clear out please help yourself for Free -
Sat there on the pavement
Was THE most Beautiful turquoise Pot

I tentatively picked it up
Feeling like a naughty girl
Taking something she shouldn't!!
As I walked home cuddling my Pot
I was reminded of Kindness
Of attracting what we would like
With good vibrations ❤️
Of course I'll take her flowers
I've ordered the replacement handle

It brought me to something far bigger
As a very small child
I had buried memories hidden
Of me in a turquoise velvet dress
Memories that stuck hard and sticky
That meant for most of my adult life
I steered clear of that colour
It made me feel viscerally sick
With no recollection of why

But I worked incredibly hard on me in therapy
I Went back and re parented that child
Held her hand and guided her forwards
Together we acknowledged memories
Together we settled little Becky gently
My Nervous system calmed finding peace

I was able to embrace Turquoise again
I was able to Wear it Dance in it and buy it
My sons wedding I embraced it Fully and frilly!
I literally couldn't get enough of turquoise
My home flourished in it ❤️
I now wear it with gusto and pride

Proof that when we do the work on us
It Frees us from past trauma
That can often hold us back as adults
That work on me led me to train further
In Somatic trauma based work
So I could sit alongside others
And face their fears that lay below

So here's to Kindness and Attraction
To Turquoise in all of it's Glorious Beauty ❤️
And to the Bravery and Courage to face fears

I'm in Scrumptious Heaven
I'm COOKING!! Me....Making Soup
I've not cooked soup for YEARS

I donned my winter Boots
From the back of the cupboard
And something magical happened!
I got all cosy and winter warming
We cleared the cupboard under stairs
Stacked away garden furniture
And somehow that clearing created a space
Within Me to fill with nurturing Goodness

My Adulted child is Home for a spell
And it's brought Mummy Bear back
A want to Nurture Care Feed and warm

I pulled out my Trusted Velvet coat
A snip at £20.00 second hand ❤️
The cord Dungarees are on again
And Suddenly Autumn feels incredible

My beautiful little coffee cups
Hand made in France sat aside me
And I smiled gently into myself
As I counted blessings: What brings me joy

Making wholesome Food to feed souls
Clearing Ready for colder months Nesting
Sitting alongside my adulted child
Winter walks in Wind and Sunshine
A crackling Fire to warm feet
Coffee cups filled with memories
Supporting local Creatives!
And Brightly coloured Vegetables
Bursting with colour flavour and love ❤️
Winter warming Boots and soft fabrics
HATS 👒 🎩 🎩 ❤️ Love a Hat ❤️

What little things bring you joy
As we journey into New seasons ✨️
As we Release Let go and Move forwards

Storms A Brewing!
The Wind is High here
But this Season Reminds Me
October sheds colours
As Greens turn to Russet
Rich colours appear on mass
Red Purple and Brown hues
Reminding us of Change

How we can let go of old stuff
Old patterns and ways of being
Scoop up new ways to respond and be
Shed the old Bring in the New

See the Beauty in Change
See the Beauty in Releasing
See the Beauty in Shedding

As the Sun shone down brightly
A small Green Orb appeared in the grass
Some Believe this is a message
A past spirit or reminder of Loved ones
Green symbolises Nature as a healer
This Brings me such peace ❤️

What can you Release to the Winds
What do you need or want to let go of
What changes do you want to invite in
What helps you withstand storms

I'm off to collect wood
To light an evening fire
To hunker down and read 📚
And Make Soup!! And Knit! And........Sit

Rest in Peace Jane Goodall
A pioneering Human ❤️
Words can't fully describe or do justice
To the Good she brought
A Loss but equally a Legacy left ❤️

I'm back in The Willow Room Today
And Lets take a peek at Anxiety

It Crept into my body late last night
I've not seen clients face to face for a month
What if I've forgotten how to DO IT
What if I leave home and leave the oven on
And The House blows up while I'm away!!
Did I turn the iron off and was the kettle on

All of these Catastrophising thoughts
Fight for a prominent place in my head

Breathe Becky Breathe I whisper to myself

Anxiety is an emotion
Anxious thoughts and feelings
That simply pass through us
Acknowledge them Say Hi to them
Then open the door for them to leave

Often we say
I'm Anxious Or I Have Anxiety
When in actual fact it's healthier
To say I'm Currently Feeling Anxious
And this too shall pass through
Anxiety is normal
We All get those feelings
It's How we respond to it
That's the Key ❤️
Don't grab it and Hold it close
Simply wave it on as it passes through

So I'm here and present
The Pause remained
The kettle won't be whistling at home
The House will still be standing
And I'm settling back into my seat

Remember to Breathe ❤️
If Anxiety knocks on your door
Don't fight it Simply Acknowledge it
And let it pass through and out
You've Got This We've Got This ❤️

I'm Home and Cannot stop Sorting!
It's that time of Year when Wintering starts
I open a cupboard and Instantly want to clear
The Charity shop on my street Love me
I Literally Run there before I change my mind!

Every Year it's the same
Clearing Cleaning Sweeping Nesting
Then I found some Knitting
Thank Goodness 😊 ❤️
It slowed me in my tracks
Made a Generous Pause appear
And finally I sat quietly and still

Does the Change in Seasons
Create Change in You
Are you are clearer and sorter
And what creates your Pause ❤️

I'm still waking an hour early
Still on French time
My soul may well still be there
But it'll catch up soon
I'm off to get my Velvet Pumkin
Into it's prime spot to say welcome
To October this week and All things Cosy

What an Absolute Treat
I arrived home To my purchase!
Ordered from the georgous Sarah
After following her story on Instagram
https://www.didyoumakeityourself.com/products

Everything is handmade
And reused materials and she's
A truly inspirational fabulous follow

Not only did i get my beautiful pouch
Inside the pouch was a handmade bookmark
A handwritten note upon it from Sarah
And the heavenly scent of Lavender
In a sweet little Lavender pouch ❤️

I'm an avid supporter of Local makers
And of reusing and thrifting materials
Some phenomenal businesses out there
Seeking to reduce land fill ❤️
And to produce some beautiful items

So my little purchase
Is beautifully made and reminding me
Look after the earth and reuse where you can
Clothing can be re purposed in so many ways
This is pieces of retro fabric and so tactile

Taking tiny steps to be kinder
To the world we live in 🌎
Reusing where we can
Can be Monumental in many ways
Supporting those creatives who work hard
Is a Big part of that journey for me

Happy Bright and Colourful Monday ❤️
How can you take a tiny step
To care for Mother Earth 🌎 ❤️ 💖
Reuse Recycle Repurpose Reinvent Reclaim

This is what Restoration Looks like ❤️
Three weeks in France working online
Bare Foot Kick Back clothes
No hair wash for three weeks
And the joy of the freedom to Be

I've come home a New version of ME
Wiser Calmer Softer Slower
Filled to the brim With so much

I've worked a Lot whilst there
But I've done it at a calmer pace
Surrounded by Nature and fields
I've swum in Lakes and rivers
And seen beautiful towns
Filled with Artists and Creatives
I've literally Fed my soul

It's evidence
As it is every year ❤️
That stepping out of the fast lane
Slowing the pace down a little
Pressing pause on all that life is
Is crucial to well being
Focusing on ourselves is not selfish
It's Self Compassion and Self Care

I arrived frazzled and struggling physically
Steroids in hand for a flare up gone rouge
I listened to my body quietly and sat with it

Lessons again ❤️
Our body speaks to us quietly then loudly
I asked What Action can I take here
I ate fresh foods and I educated myself
I watched and listened and learned
All about the body holding score
Through podcasts workshops and seminars
I read books and sat with words and language

It's when we pause that We create space
For all of those Wonderful things to flow in

I'm hopeful I'll bring this to my work
Offer the lessons I'm slowly learning
It's hard as humans we get caught up
In the ever speedy ways of living
We're all a piece of Art in the making
And we're constantly Learning daily ❤️

I'm off to wash my hair!!

Seriously
This has to be clear evidence
That our environment affects us
In profound and resonating ways

This space here changes Daily
The colours The weather The scenery

But it's power is priceless
I'm drawing again after years
And BAKING! After 30 years!

It's incredible what happens
When we open up space to just Be
Art and Creativity Flows ❤️

How can you create space
To Do what you Love most
How does your environment impact your wellbeing and your mental health?
What could you change?
What would you choose to change?
