Today is World Mental Health Day 💚

And I want to remind you that you’re not alone, and you don’t have to carry everything by yourself.

Some days feel heavy. Some mornings, it’s hard to get out of bed.

And sometimes, even when life looks “fine,” your heart feels tired.

Take a deep breath with me 🌿

At Laura Gómez Therapy, I believe that healing starts with compassion; for yourself, your past, and your journey.

Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, burnout, self-worth, or just trying to find yourself again, know that there’s space here for you.

You deserve rest. You deserve understanding. You deserve to heal.

If you’ve been thinking about therapy but didn’t know where to start, let’s talk.

Together, we can gently untangle what’s been weighing on you and help you rediscover peace and clarity.

Have you ever thought about therapy, but felt it was too far, too formal, or too much?

Support doesn’t have to be complicated. 💛

With online therapy, you can:
- Talk from the comfort of your own home
- Save time and energy (no travelling, no waiting rooms)
- Feel safe in your own space, wherever you are in the world
- Wear your pjs & have a cup of tea along with your favourite blanket

As an integrative counsellor, I bring together different approaches to fit you, not the other way around.

It’s about creating a space where you feel understood, supported, and free to explore your feelings.

Imagine… just opening your laptop or phone, taking a deep breath, and knowing you don’t have to go through things alone.

You deserve that support. You deserve that time for you.

If you’ve been waiting for the “right moment” maybe this is it.

Send me a message today, and let’s take that first step together.

Sometimes healing looks like this…

A slow sunset over Kariba, reminding you to pause, breathe, and just be.

I took this picture during Summer 2O22 - This trip truly helped me to connect with my wildest self. Surrounded by nature, and living a very different lifestyle to the one I could have in Spain or the UK.

In a world that tells you to keep going, sunsets whisper that it’s okay to slow down.
It’s okay to rest. It’s okay to feel. It’s okay to start again tomorrow.

Just like the sun, you don’t have to shine all day 🌙

💙 This picture is a gift, from me to you.
Take this moment in,
and allow yourself to soften.

🍂 September often feels like a second January; a chance to start new projects, finish old resolutions, and make the last months of the year “count.”

But not everyone feels that way. Some of us look around and feel behind. Like everyone else is moving forward with new energy, while we’re just trying to keep up.

There’s no “right” way to do life. Your pace is valid. Your season of life is valid. Even if you’re not starting something new, you are still growing in ways you might not see yet.

September doesn’t have to mean starting over; it can mean rest, reflection, and taking gentle steps to care for yourself.

If you’ve been feeling “behind” lately, this is your reminder: you are not failing. You are human. And you are enough.

Have you ever felt completely crushed by a small rejection?

Or avoided being yourself in case someone didn’t approve?

The fear of rejection is real and it’s often rooted in early experiences where love or acceptance didn’t feel guaranteed.

The good news is, this fear can be unlearned.

🧠 Therapy helps you feel safer, more secure, and more yourself; without the constant fear of being "too much" or "not enough."

DM me if this resonates; I'm currently accepting new clients.

I recently wrote an article on my blog talking about Seasonal Affective Disorder now that summer is coming to an end - this will hopefully help some people understand why they struggle so much with the colder seasons and a few tips on how to manage this situation:

✨ These flyers contain my practice in a nutshell ✨

As many of you know, I’ve been building my counselling practice, and I’m really excited to be opening more space for new clients.

The flyer gives a clear picture of what I do, who I help, and how to get in touch. If you feel called to, I’d be so grateful if you could share this post or pass it along to someone who might benefit.

Sometimes the smallest share can connect the right person with the support they’ve been looking for.

Thank you all for your support - it means a lot! 💙

...
How many times have you panicked thinking that there was something genuinely wrong with you after dealing with all those REAL symptoms?

It is anxiety. Nothing is wrong with you. But let me tell you something: anxiety can be debilitating.
It can make you weak, scared or even 'paranoid', and that's because all those symptoms that you are experiencing are REAL. That's your body reacting, your body trying to talk to you using the only way it knows, which is through physical and mental discomfort.

What are the steps that you are going to take next to attend your body and hear what it has to say to you?
