    Loneliness: It isn’t the life we would choose.

    We all feel lonely at some point – it’s a normal human emotion and having been a military wife for over 20 years I know first-hand how lonely life can be at times. Humans are a very social species: all our lives are built around a certain amount of social interactions and physical proximity and […]

    Christmas: Festive or Frantic?

    Christmas can be a time for celebration but for many people it can be a time of stress, anxiety, disappointment or loneliness, especially for those going through difficult time. My family loves Christmas but I often enter the festive season with a little trepidation…  Christmas is a different experience for us all and can bring […]

It will help both partners better understand their relationship and the role they each play within it. As a Relationship Counsellor I am not able to solve your problems for you. We can mediate and give […]

    The self-esteem Gremlin!

    Written with young people in mind but also great for us grown ups! I have been working along-side children and teenagers for nearly 20 years and I have my own tween and teenager to add to the mix, so I have had a lot of experience in how low self-esteem can effect a young person’s […]

    Are you a people pleaser? The art of No…

    The art and freedom of learning to say no… Most of us are taught from an early age that being ‘selfless’ is a good thing and there are many proven benefits of altruism to both our mental and physical well-being. But to push ourselves to the limit and please others all of the time may mean giving […]

    Accepting change in the changing world…

    A new home, a new part of the country to familiarise yourself with, new friends to make and new work to focus on. Change is something that we are all very familiar with as we are part of a world where we have to move on every few years. We often leave good friends and […]

    Mind Traps – being mindful of the power of your thoughts…

    ‘Mind traps‘ or ‘thinking traps’ are patterns of thought and are also know as ‘cognitive distortions’ as they usually come with a negative swing which prevent us from seeing things as they really are. It is a way that our mind convinces us of one thing when in reality its completely untrue. Mind traps can […]

    Mother’s guilt is only natural and is the consequence of wanting to be a good mother to your children. However, in the end it won’t do us any good.. The summer term is well under way and it is different for all of us. Life now has brought so many new and unexpected challenges including […]
