The real reason you didn’t find the benefit from courses and self-help books. ⁣ Does this sound familiar to you?⁣ 📚You buy lots of books and might feel a little better afterwards but it is short-term and never lasts⁣ ⁣ 👩‍🏫You enrol in courses but again don’t feel the benefit⁣ ⁣ 📘You sometimes might not even complete the courses or finish the book⁣ ⁣ 🧠You feel even more overwhelmed by all of the information you have learned ⁣ ⁣ 🙁You’re struggling to put the information you’ve received into practice and so soon abandon it⁣ ⁣ Don’t worry, it’s completely normal. ⁣ ⁣ Here is the reason why:⁣ 𝐘𝐨𝐮 𝐝𝐢𝐝𝐧’𝐭 𝐠𝐞𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐫𝐨𝐨𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐛𝐥𝐞𝐦. ⁣ ⁣ ✨It is all well and good educating yourself on certain topics but are they the 𝘳𝘰𝘰𝘵 of what is causing your difficulty? ⁣ ⁣ ✨If you don’t know where the problem begins or how it began, then you can’t successfully tackle it. ⁣ ⁣ ✨That’s why my Chakra Balancing course is different. Yes, you will learn about chakras, what they are and how they impact us, but more importantly you will be given exercises to 𝘦𝘹𝘱𝘭𝘰𝘳𝘦 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘳𝘰𝘰𝘵 𝘤𝘢𝘶𝘴𝘦𝘴 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘣𝘦𝘭𝘪𝘦𝘧𝘴. ⁣ ⁣ ✨These exercises are designed to really investigate the 𝘤𝘰𝘳𝘦 of your being and help you understand yourself more. The exercises take you back to various stages in your life.⁣ ⁣ ✨This type of work is 𝘱𝘰𝘸𝘦𝘳𝘧𝘶𝘭 and really allows you to explore your true self. ⁣ ⁣ ✨Furthermore, you can complete the programme at your own pace and you have lifetime access.⁣ ⁣ You can get all of this for just €39.

Save SOSAD @sosadireland.ie SOSAD is a wonderful organisation providing free counselling to anyone who needs it. They are currently in financial trouble and they need our help. SOSAD currently sees 700 people a week. 700 people who need this vital service. 700 people who have nowhere else to go. We know that the mental health service in this country is broken and people who are desperate for support are often left without help. But they can find the therapy and care they need in SOSAD. I spent time volunteering as a counsellor in SOSAD. I saw people in need of emergency appointments who were able to meet with a counsellor that same day. I saw people in pain with nowhere else to go, be heard, find support and work with a therapist. I saw lives saved and changed. Please help in whatever way you can. Time is running out and we cannot let SOSAD close. #savesosad

I’m a therapist and yesterday 𝘐 𝘴𝘱𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘳𝘴 𝘤𝘳𝘺𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘢𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘴𝘶𝘧𝘧𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘪𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘭𝘥. I cried because of right denying policies and views. I cried because of hate. I cried because of gen*cide. I cried because of animal torment. I cried because I saw a video of a blind man suffering. I had to take time away from work because I was so overcome with tears, sadness and general despair. ⁣ ⁣ We’re taught from an early age to 𝘵𝘰𝘶𝘨𝘩𝘦𝘯 𝘶𝘱 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘤𝘳𝘺𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘪𝘴 𝘢 𝘴𝘪𝘨𝘯 𝘰𝘧 𝘸𝘦𝘢𝘬𝘯𝘦𝘴𝘴. And if you’re going to cry, for god’s sake don’t let anyone know about it. ⁣ ⁣ 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐞𝐦𝐩𝐚𝐭𝐡𝐲 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐠𝐭𝐡𝐬, 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐰𝐞𝐚𝐤𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐬. Crying is not a weakness. You are crying because you care deeply, because you want better for the world, because you are sensitive to suffering and because you are full of consideration. ⁣ I’ve heard remarks before that a therapist shouldn’t be overwhelmed by sadness. There seems to be a belief that feeling anxious, stressed, scared, sad etc. makes us bad at our jobs. But that’s not true. In fact, I think it makes us better.

𝐈’𝐦 𝐚 “𝐝𝐢𝐟𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐮𝐥𝐭” 𝐰𝐨𝐦𝐚𝐧! I have been told that I need to 𝘳𝘦𝘮𝘰𝘷𝘦 𝘦𝘮𝘰𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 because I was passionate about my work. I’ve been told that 𝘐’𝘮 𝘵𝘰𝘰 𝘴𝘦𝘯𝘴𝘪𝘵𝘪𝘷𝘦 because I brought intimidating physical behaviour from a male colleague to my boss (let’s just say his fists were involved!)⁣ I have been told 𝘐’𝘮 𝘥𝘪𝘧𝘧𝘪𝘤𝘶𝘭𝘵 because I refused to allow the individuals I represented be treated unfairly. Would a man be told the same things? If you are reading this and nodding in agreement, I’m sorry that you’ve been treated so badly. I want you to know that 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐛𝐥𝐞𝐦. You are not difficult, you are not too sensitive and you don’t need to remove emotion from anything you are doing. It can be hard to have our voices heard but 𝐈 𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐫 𝐲𝐨𝐮. 𝐈 𝐬𝐞𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮. 𝐈 𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮.

Unpopular opinion: you need to know your therapist’s / coach’s views and beliefs⁣ ⁣ The golden rule of therapy used to be that you should never self-disclose to clients, meaning that clients should know nothing about you. Although this is changing, 𝘐 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘬 𝘪𝘵 𝘯𝘦𝘦𝘥𝘴 𝘵𝘰 𝘨𝘰 𝘧𝘶𝘳𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳.

One of the most transformative experiences in therapy is the strong interpersonal relationship built between the therapist and the client. This connection is the cornerstone of effective therapy and it transcends physical location and proximity. This is why I am a firm believer in online therapy. In a world where our lives are increasingly digital, online therapy offers convenience and accessibility, but more importantly, it proves that meaningful connections can be made, regardless of location. As a Psychotherapist and Life Coach, I have seen firsthand how powerful online sessions can be in fostering deep, therapeutic relationships. Here’s why online therapy works: ⭐Connection Over Proximity The essence of therapy lies in the trust and rapport between the therapist and the client. This connection is not bound by physical location. Through my online services, you will experience a safe, empathetic and supportive environment, no matter where you are. ⭐Accessibility and Convenience Online therapy removes barriers such as travel time, and scheduling conflicts. It opens up the possibility for more people to access the support they need, from the comfort of their own space. You can also sit in your pyjamas and be comfortable and cosy. ⭐Comfort and Privacy Many clients find that they can open up more easily in their own surroundings. Online therapy provides a level of comfort and privacy that can enhance the therapeutic process. To help you experience this firsthand, I offer a FREE consultation. This allows us to meet, discuss your needs and ensure that you feel a strong connection with me before making any commitment. It’s important that you feel comfortable and confident in your therapeutic journey. If you’ve been considering therapy but are unsure about online sessions, I encourage you to give it a try. The connection we build can be just as profound and impactful as in-person sessions. Let’s take the first step together. Book your FREE consultation today and discover the possibilities that online therapy can offer. #Onlinetherapy #Mentalhealth #Psychotherapy #Counseling #Therapeuticrelationship #Accesstocare #Personalgrowth #Wellbeing
