Here Comes The Sun Counselling

20/04/2026

If your child is struggling with school right now, you’re probably feeling it too.
The worry.
The frustration.
The “what do I do to help them?”
Whether it’s bullying, exam stress, or your child feeling overwhelmed or misunderstood — especially if they’re neurodivergent — it can feel like a constant battle.
And sometimes, despite your best efforts, nothing seems to ease it.
You’re not failing as a parent 💛
And your child isn’t failing either.
They may just need the right kind of support.
I offer a safe, neuro-affirming space for children to explore what’s going on, build confidence, and feel understood — without pressure or judgement.

As the weekend arrives, notice how you’re really feeling — not how you think you should feel.
For some, weekends bring relief.
For others, they bring quiet… and in that quiet, everything else gets louder.
The anxiety.
The grief.
The overthinking.
The exhaustion from holding it all together all week.
If that resonates, you’re not alone 💛
You don’t need to fix everything this weekend.
You don’t need to have the answers.
Start with something smaller: ✨ A moment to breathe
✨ A pause without pressure
✨ A little more kindness towards yourself
And if you’re finding it hard to sit with what’s coming up, that’s where support can really help.
I offer a neuro-affirming, compassionate space for both adults and children — whether you're navigating anxiety, loss, or just feeling overwhelmed.

Lets talk about Chronic Pain 💛

Chronic pain is not ' Just Physical'

Pain affects your thoughts.
Your thoughts affect your body.

It can become a cycle:
Pain➡ tension➡ stress➡ more pain

This doesn't mean 'it's in your head'.
It means your body and mind are deeply connected.

Learning to gently interrupt that cycle with:
Rest
Boundaries
Nervous system support
Therapy

These can all make a difference.

You deserve support with it all, not just the physical side.

Weekend reminder:
You are allowed to slow down.✨

The weekend doesn’t always have to be about being productive.

Sometimes the most important thing you can do is rest, reset, and give your mind a break.

Take time to:
• breathe
• step outside
• connect with people you care about
• do something that brings you peace

You deserve moments of calm too.

🌿 Wishing everyone a gentle and positive weekend.

Myth: “Therapy is only for people in crisis.”
Reality: “Therapy is for anyone who wants to understand themselves better.”

One of the biggest myths about therapy is that you have to be at your worst to go.

In reality, therapy can help with:
• stress
• relationships
• boundaries
• self-confidence
• personal growth

You don’t need to wait until things fall apart to ask for support.

🌱 Therapy is not just for surviving. It’s for thriving.

💛Your feelings are valid, even if others don’t understand them.💌

Sometimes we minimize our feelings because we think others have it worse or because someone told us to “just get over it.”

But emotions aren’t competitions.

Your feelings deserve space, compassion, and understanding.
Acknowledging them is often the first step toward healing.

💬 What emotion have you been holding in lately?

💛Mothers Day can be hard 💛

For some it is a day filled with love and celebration.
For others it can bring grief, loss and complicated feelings.
If you are missing your mum, a mum missing her child, struggling with memories or navigating a relationship that isn't simple, it's okay to feel all the emotions that come up.

Grief does not follow a calendar. It can resurface at any time.
Give yourself permission to feel, remember and honour your experience 💛🌱

💌A gentle reminder from therapy:

💛Allow yourself a moment of stillness and reflection
💛Reach out to supportive friends, family or a therapist
💛Create a small ritual to honour your feelings like, lighting a candle, journaling or sharing memories

Mothers day is not one size fits all. Be kind to yourself and remember:
Your feelings are valid. 💛

With these 2 pictures I wanted to show you a physical representation of the difference a year can make 😊

I began last March feeling terrible, my weight was not only a physical burden but a mental one too.

When I look at these 2 pictures I don't really see the weight loss, I see the healing I have had to do to get here.

I picture 1 I'm smiling but it is a mask, I know the fear, the judgement, the feeling of failure, the shame and embarrassment that smile is hiding. All of my emotional baggage is physically there for everyone to see and use as a weapon to beat me down more. I was tired of not being enough.

I picture 2 I see a years worth of hard work, not the food but the understanding.

Understanding what led here, why food, just like alcohol, drugs or any other addiction became a crutch.
I learnt to work with my feelings rather than trying to numb them with food.
After years of Yo Yo dieting I realised that unless I dealt with the foundation of the problem it would always be an issue.

This isn’t about weight. It’s about emotional healing and understanding the “why” behind coping behaviours.

So I start this March having lost weight but having gained so much more than smaller clothes.
I still have a way to go, but that's OK, there is no rush, I've learnt it's pointless reaching your goal if you don't learn anything along the way!

This isn’t about size — it’s about emotional healing ❤️
