When you are going through something tough it can feel overwhelming and sometimes you can’t imagine how things can get better. It’s important to know though, that things can be different, calmer, happier and this hard time will pass. Just take one little step at a time. Don’t be afraid to ask for support. It’s okay to say when you are not okay. You matter! ❤️

How kind are you to yourself? The next time that inner critic pops up or you are giving yourself a hard time and not feeling like you are important enough to matter, ask yourself “ would I treat a friend like this?” If the answer is no, then why would you treat yourself this way? Let go of any negative thoughts, respect yourself and stop giving yourself a hard time. You are worth more than that! ❤️

You should never have to shrink yourself to feel accepted by others. Know your own worth, have your boundaries, make your own decisions and if that feels uncomfortable for you to do then this is aimed at you and you are most definitely as important as anyone else, you just need to learn to believe that. Trust me… it’s a game changer! ❤️

Being a people pleaser can feel good in the moment, but it doesn’t make you happy in the long run. I know this to be 100% true and I also know it’s a hard habit to break. When you’re always putting everyone else first, you end up tired, overwhelmed, and can lose yourself along the way. Real happiness comes from taking care of yourself too, not just keeping everyone else satisfied. You don’t have to seek approval if you know your own self worth. It’s okay to say no sometimes—you deserve that balance, you are worth it!❤️

Reaching out for help when you’re struggling can be really hard. It can feel awkward, scary, and like you might be judged or not understood, so sometimes you might think it’s easier to just keep it to yourself. Even admitting to yourself that something’s wrong can be tough. But as hard as it is, talking to someone can actually make things feel a bit less stressful and can be life changing. Reach out if you are not okay!

Keeping your thoughts and feelings bottled up is rarely a good idea. Talking about things, with someone who will really hear you, in a safe space can be enormously healing. If you are thinking about counselling, get in touch with Jennie on 07710429802. Or email jennie@dawlishcounselling.uk

I had a memory pop up on my personal page today, reminding me that three years ago I left my part time paid employment to be solely self employed at Dawlish Counselling. It felt like the right time to make it my full time role after a few years of counselling alongside other work. I have never regretted it. The people that I have met, who have trusted me, who have been brave enough to walk in and sit in front of a stranger and open up about things they may have never said before. I love what I do. I have seen some people turn their lives around and make changes that they never thought possible. It’s a privilege to be a small part of that. My clients were, and still are amazing people who inspired me to take the plunge into the unpredictable world of self employment. 🙏 Thank you… you know who you are ❤️

Talking about how you feel and what you are going through really does make a difference. If you are able to be heard in a safe space by someone that you trust, firstly you realise you’re not alone. Also, sometimes other people can help you see things differently or be there to support while you figure it out . Keeping it all bottled up doesn’t make it go away, in fact it can make it a really hard burden to carry but saying it out loud can make a big difference. Talk to somebody… you are worth it! If you are considering counselling, take the step, if it feels a bit scary, get in touch for a chat about it.😊 ❤️

Talking to a therapist can be life changing. It gives you a safe space to open up without feeling judged. It can help you make sense of your thoughts, understand your feelings better, and find healthier ways to deal with events in your life. Over time, it can make a big difference in how you cope and how you view yourself. If you feel that you want to make changes and you would benefit from some emotional support contact jennie@dawlishcounselling.co.uk or call 07710429802.

Talking to a counsellor can really help when things are feeling overwhelming. It’s having someone you can talk to who won’t judge you and is there just to listen and support you. Sometimes saying things out loud makes them feel easier and a counsellor can help you see things from a different angle or figure out better ways to deal with things. It can make you feel heard and supported and more in control of what’s going on. If you feel that you might benefit from counselling, contact jennie@dawlishcounselling.co.uk or call 07710429802 🙂

Know your worth! You don’t need to shrink yourself in order to fit in. You don’t need to accept unfairness, unkindness or less than you deserve. You are important and your feelings are valid. You matter and it’s important that you believe that.
