This work is demanding. And it’s also deeply grounding.

Because alongside the pain,
I get to witness honesty, effort, humour, and resilience.

Clients show me what it looks like to keep going
even when things are uncertain.

That’s something I carry with me,
long after the session ends.

20/01/2026

No one tells you how hard it is to end therapy.

We prepare clients for it.

We talk about closure, review progress, celebrate growth.

But for us?

It’s saying goodbye to someone we’ve sat with every week.

It’s letting go of stories we’ve carried.

It’s wondering how they’ll be.

It’s not just their ending.

It’s ours too.

15/01/2026

When a client says, “I’ve never told anyone this,” stop and take it in.

That moment matters.

It’s not just a disclosure, it’s trust.

They’ve chosen me to carry something they couldn’t share with anyone else.

That’s not small. That’s not routine.

It’s easy to move on to the next question, the next silence, the next hour.

But pause.

Remember: being trusted like this is part of the work, and it’s also a privilege.

Carry it with care.

Don’t forget the weight of it.

I don’t change people’s lives. I walk alongside them while they do.

They’re the ones sitting with discomfort.
Trying new responses.
Noticing patterns they’ve avoided for years.

I guide. I reflect. I hold the frame.
But the courage is theirs.

That partnership is what makes this work meaningful.

08/01/2026

Clients don’t move at the pace I see things. And that’s a good thing

I might notice the pattern early.
The connection between then and now.
The story repeating itself.

But therapy isn’t about how fast insight arrives.

It’s about how safely it lands.

Honouring their pace
is part of respecting their autonomy.

06/01/2026

The new year doesn’t always arrive with motivation.

For some clients, January isn’t about goals.

It’s about survival.

Getting through another week.

Trying again after a hard December.

And part of my work, right now,
is reminding them they don’t need a reinvention.

They just need permission to begin where they are.

Sometimes a new year is a soft reset

not a fresh start.

18/12/2025

Sometimes the progress I celebrate isn’t visible to anyone else.

The first time they use “I” instead of “you.”

The first time they say “I think I deserve better.”

The first time they laugh when they used to cry.

These moments are quiet but powerful.

And I never take them for granted.

16/12/2025

Therapy isn’t about having it all together. It’s about daring to try again.

Clients don’t just show up when they’re ready.

They show up when they’re scared.
When they’ve tried before.
When they’re not sure it’ll work this time.

And that choice to try again

is the quiet courage that keeps me inspired.

11/12/2025

Every time a client thanks me, I’m thinking no, thank you.

For trusting me with your story.

For showing up even when it’s hard.

For letting me witness your change.

You let me see the resilience, humour, and bravery that remind me why this work matters.

We both grow from that.

09/12/2025

Change doesn’t happen because of me it happens because we do the work together

They bring honesty.
I bring space.

They show up with fear.
I meet them with steadiness.

Therapy isn’t one person healing another.

It’s two people walking through uncertainty with purpose.

04/12/2025

Every session is a fresh start even when my mind is still in the last one.

I could’ve had a heavy session at 9.
Tears at 10.
A breakthrough at 11.

Then I take a breath, open the door, and start again.

Clean slate. New energy. New person.

That reset is silent work.

But it’s part of the skill.

02/12/2025

Empathy is connection but it’s also stamina.

It looks effortless.

But attuning, staying present, keeping your nervous system steady
that’s work.

It’s invisible, constant, and draining in ways words don’t capture.

Empathy isn’t just a trait.

It’s a practice.

About takeaseat.co.uk

Hi Facebook Friends,

We’d like to introduce you to takeaseat.co.uk, a brand new digital platform that connects everyday people, like you, with counsellors, therapists & coaches using the power of community.

Our Story:

The founders of takeaseat.co.uk grew up with parents as mental health professionals, becoming overly familiar with the catch 22 of; no clients-no money, no money-no clients, story.

The marketing tools available, required financial outlay or subscription, with no guarantee of success and by nature create an unfair bias towards those of means, who simply pay for optimal visibility.

Over time we realised the over-reliance of referrals was a fundamental failing of the mental health system. And everyday people still aren’t getting the help they need... Which is simply unacceptable!

There are passionate professionals, ready to help but perhaps struggle to be visible in a biased system. Which is why we set out to create, takeaseat.co.uk (learn more about our story here)

Our story - gave us the passion necessary to create change in a space that is far too important to have an inefficient system.
