For some people, grief and depression symptoms will overlap and often in the therapy room we talk about this.

I've written this article to talk a little about the intersection between these two experiences, and hopefully highlight how people can care for themselves when navigating grief and depression.

Grief and depression often overlap, leaving many feeling overwhelmed and alone. While sadness and loss are part of grieving, persistent low mood, hopelessness, or difficulty coping may signal depression. This article explores the connection between grief and depression, helping you understand your f...

Our grief retreat was a week ago today, and I'm still reflecting on some of our learning. I've been working as a grief therapist for a long time now, and sometimes feel like nothing would surprise me any more. Then, I have moment's when I'm genuinely in awe of how people navigate their loss. No two people in that room felt the same, each of us making sense of our own experience, but doing so in community - hearing each other, holding space for big emotions. It's really something special.

Colleen and I have had some lovely feedback from this most recent group that we wanted to share. Not to brag, but hopefully to inspire confidence in anyone who feels they might like to join us, but are feeling a little unsure of whether it's for them.

We've got dates available in September, and November. You can find more info on my website, and the link is in the comments.

Picking a therapist is a nightmare! Qualifications aren't easily comparable, there's loads of acronyms and if you don't know what questions to ask it can feel like a minefield.

It's something I've been harping on about since day 1.

Therapists need to be clear and transparent about what they can competently offer, to whom, and what the cost of it will be. Nothing is more of a turn off that going to a counsellors profiles, and their 'specialism' section looking like war and peace...

In a bid to help prospective clients get clear on what they're looking for, and what to avoid, I've written this blog article: https://zurl.co/1NejC

I'd love to know what you think!

As a UK-based counsellor accredited by the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), one of the most important messages I can share is this: be clued up before you choose a therapist. In the UK, counselling and psychotherapy are not a regulated profession, so anyone, with no qual...

Yesterday was truly special. Our grief retreats are a unique space... we laughed, we cried, we shared, we witnessed and we held space. I have such a deep appreciation for those who joined us, and also to those of you who have liked and shared our posts to help us spread the word.

Huge bow of appreciation to my sidekick Colleen from .yogaandwellness.studio .She's a joy to spend time with anyway, but working with someone that just gets it is *chefs kiss*

I'm taking a wee social media break for a few weeks. You'll still see some scheduled content, but i'm needed some time off here. I'm currently fully booked for counselling clients, and my next availability will be August.

You're in luck though as we've two more retreat dates available for this year, in September and November. The link in my bio will take you to my site, and they're available to book under events.

How long does counselling last? I've captured my thoughts on this, having worked as a therapist for over 15years now... and you might be surprised at the answer!

https://zurl.co/gOf50

One of the most common questions I hear from potential clients is, "How long will I need to be in therapy?" It's a fair question, and I completely understand why people ask it. After all, starting counselling is a big step, and it's natural to want to know what you're getting into. The truth is, the...
