This week I've been reminded of the power of a hug.

Children and adults alike reaching out — seeking comfort, connection, and care.

It’s easy to take for granted how something so simple can mean so much.

You never really know when someone needs a hug, for whatever reason.

So make sure to share those well meaning hugs with everyone, as long as they're happy to receive it of course!

💛 World Mental Health Day 2025 💛

Today reminds us to look after our mental wellbeing and for each other.
Whether it’s a child learning to express their feelings, a young person facing life’s pressures, or an adult juggling daily challenges, mental health matters at every age.

A simple check-in, a kind word, or a listening ear can make a huge difference.

Let’s keep supporting, talking, and remind each other that ✨ It’s okay not to be okay. No one has to face anything alone 🥰

🌟 Friday Focus: Drawing and Talking 🌟

I’m delighted to now be offering Drawing and Talking sessions for private clients. 🎨🗨️

This gentle, non-intrusive, attachment-based intervention is suitable for both children and adults. It can help with a wide range of challenges, including:
✨ Trauma
✨ Bereavement and loss
✨ Anxiety and mental health struggles
✨ School avoidance
✨ Young carers
✨ Special educational needs
✨ Family separation
✨ Bullying
✨ Friendship problems

Sessions are 1:1 and take place at the same time, same place each week for 12 weeks, providing a safe and consistent space to gently explore emotions from the inside.

It’s also an ideal option for those waiting for CAMHS or other services, offering support in the meantime.

If you’d like to learn more, or see how Drawing and Talking could support you or your child, please get in touch. 💜

You don’t need to be a health professional to help prevent suicide.

Sometimes, all it takes is asking someone if they are okay, listening to a friend or offering a bit of support.

From 10th September – 10th October, we are marking Month of Hope and encouraging everyone to spread awareness and offer hope to those who need it most.

💬 Start a conversation; ask how someone is doing and really listen to them.
🤝 Offer your support and let them know they are not alone.
📚 Educate yourself about the signs of mental health struggles and how you can help.

For more guidance on supporting someone who is struggling with suicidal thoughts and useful contacts, visit www.wigan.gov.uk/MonthOfHope

If you feel you or someone you know is in crisis, contact Samaritans on 116 123
