FAQ Friday
*How can I make the most out of therapy?"

Investing your time and money in counselling is a significant commitment, and it’s completely understandable to want to gain as much benefit as possible from your experience. Here are some suggestions to help you get the most out of your therapy:

- Reflect on Your Sessions: Take some quiet moments to think about your therapy sessions. What resonated with you? What insights came up?
- Notice Your Mental Health Triggers: Throughout the week, pay attention to what affects your mental well-being. Bringing these observations to your sessions can lead to meaningful discussions.
- Think Ahead: Before your next appointment, consider what issues or feelings would be helpful to explore. This can guide your therapist in supporting you more effectively.
- Address Avoidance: Ask yourself if there are topics you’re hesitating to bring up. Facing these concerns can be an essential part of your healing journey.
- Track Your Progress: Keep a journal of your feelings and experiences. It can be helpful to see how far you’ve come.
- Share All Aspects of Your Journey: Bring everything to your sessions—the good, the challenging, and everything in between. Each piece is important.
- Be Patient with the Process: Understand that meaningful change takes time. Be gentle with yourself as you navigate this journey.

Ultimately, the most crucial step you can take to maximise your counselling experience is to consistently show up for your sessions.

World Kindness Day 2025

Practising kindness truly lifts my spirits and fills my heart with joy. Acts of kindness release those wonderful “feel-good” chemicals, creating that warm, fuzzy feeling we all cherish, whether intentional or spontaneous. It's heartening to know that those on the receiving end experience that joy too, thanks to oxytocin, the “love hormone.”

Spreading kindness is a simple yet powerful way to enhance our mental well-being, whether it's holding a door open, sharing a smile, or offering a friendly nod.

- Breathe deeply: Focus on extending your exhale.

I offer face-to-face counselling in Wrexham and Chester, but I understand that online therapy can also be a great option for some. Whether through Zoom or phone, virtual sessions provide flexibility and comfort.

Some clients prefer online-only sessions for various reasons, such as living outside the area, being overseas, having health needs or caring responsibilities, working from home, or feeling anxious about in-person visits. Others find that a hybrid approach—combining both online and in-person sessions—works best for them.

If you're considering virtual or telephone counselling, please ensure you have a private space where you won’t be interrupted or overheard.

Counselling often revolves around the profound sense of loss that many experience—loss of health, strength, autonomy, identity, and security. It’s completely understandable to feel isolated and powerless during such times. These feelings can bring about a wave of emotions, including apprehension, anxiety, anger, guilt, and sadness. They can create significant challenges in personal and intimate relationships as well.

Navigating this journey can be incredibly difficult. It’s not uncommon to feel as though you’re burdening friends and family, especially when they might already be facing their own struggles. Sometimes, those closest to us may feel unsure about how to support us, leading them to change the subject or attempt to “cheer us up” instead of engaging with our pain.

This is where counselling can really make a difference. It provides a safe space where you can openly share your thoughts and feelings without fear of judgment. I am here to listen, to understand, and to support you through this challenging time.

Please know you don’t have to face this alone. I encourage you to reach out if you’re feeling overwhelmed. www.counsellinginwrexham.co.uk

Do you often find yourself feeling overwhelmed and drained by the demands of everyday life?

If so, know that you're not alone. Many of us lose sight of the importance of carving out time for ourselves amid the chaos. This weekend, I encourage you to prioritise your well-being and take a moment to simply relax.

Perhaps you’re aware, but yoga can be a wonderful way to relieve stress. It encourages relaxation, which naturally counters the stresses we face. If you’re interested in exploring how yoga can help you, I invite you to learn more about my Compassionate Yoga Classes. You can find more information here: https://www.counsellinginwrexham.co.uk/compassionate-yoga/

Take care of yourself. You deserve it.

Receiving a cancer diagnosis can be an incredibly overwhelming experience, throwing your sense of normalcy into disarray. It's a sobering reality that one in two people will face cancer at some point, and when it happens, it can feel shocking and uncertain.

Counselling can be a vital source of support at any stage of this journey. Many reach out right after a diagnosis, feeling anxious and fearful. Others seek help after successful treatment, as they navigate physical changes or concerns about the future.

I also support clients in remission or those facing end-of-life decisions. No matter where you are in this journey, I'm here to help you find understanding and solace. For more details, please visit: https://www.counsellinginwrexham.co.uk

World Mental Health Day 2025

Today is World Mental Health Day, and this year’s theme from the World Federation for Mental Health focuses on access to services during catastrophes and emergencies. It's a reminder that everyone deserves support for their mental health, no matter the circumstances.

Even in 2025, stigma around mental health persists, and it's crucial that we work to dismantle these barriers together.

Please be kind to yourself and to others. If you’re struggling, reach out to someone who can help, whether it's a friend, family member, or a counsellor like me.

Finding the right counsellor often comes down to how well you feel understood. When you think, "Yes, this person understands me," it’s a sign you’re on the right path. Empathy is essential in counselling; it creates a space where you feel heard and valued.

I deeply believe that empathy is the cornerstone of effective therapy. My own journey has been lengthy, filled with challenges and heartache, and through that experience, I have come to truly understand the weight that life can place on our shoulders. I want you to know that I can relate to what you’re experiencing, and I’m here to help you navigate through it, so you can emerge stronger on the other side—just as I did.

If you’re feeling uncertain or overwhelmed, I want you to know that I’m here to help. If you have a specific goal in mind, short-term counselling may be a great option for you. Not all therapy needs to be open-ended or long-term, and if you feel that just a few sessions would be beneficial, we can certainly arrange that.

During our first appointment, I’ll take the time to understand what you hope to achieve from our time together. We’ll work collaboratively to create a plan that fits your needs, and I’ll be there to guide you on what’s realistic to expect from short-term counselling.

I offer both short- and longer-term sessions because I genuinely care about your progress. I am committed to supporting you in making as much meaningful change as possible within the timeframe you have.

If you're ready to take that step, I invite you to book an initial appointment with me today. Remember, even short-term support from a therapist can truly make a difference in your life.
