Welcome to my blog!
Hello!
It’s in these pages that I get the chance to talk about the things which I think matter in mental (and physical) health. Different approaches, new ideas and current news on all things which work towards improving our well-being.
It’s a chance for me to be less formal and more personal so that you get a sense of who I am as a counsellor and supervisor.
I write about things that interest me so that could be Eco-therapy, Mindfulness or Chinese Medicine. But it will also cover more general things such as stress management, supporting mental health initiatives and major happenings such as dealing with a pandemic!
Views expressed are my own and my style is light-hearted and informal. I take the issues seriously but not myself.
So please read on….
