I feel stuck

It’s natural to feel stuck sometimes. It maybe difficult to experience but it is often a sign that change is coming or needed. This is a good thing.

Try to be kinder to yourself during this time and listen to what you need in each moment to allow change to evolve less restricted and more comfortably.

I am in pain

This can be physical or emotional pain and sometimes you can experience both, as one often affects the other. Pain is a way of our bodies telling us something needs change.
The good news is that when there is positive change in one area then often the other area where you are experiencing pain will also begin to improve.

Change is constant and will come.

Remember you are a whole being and there is a way forward.
Find support that includes all of these aspects of you for the most effective support.

"I don’t know what I need?"

It’s ok not to be OK or to not know what you need. Everyone experiences times of uncertainty in life.

You don’t have to see the whole staircase; you just need to take the first step

- Martin Luther King, Jr

Try to be kinder to yourself, take things one moment at a time, one day at a time, one week at a time.

"Am I doing something wrong?"

You are not doing anything wrong. There is no competition, perfect life or ideal person. It is OK not to be OK and everyone gets stuck at some point. Challenges happen to everyone, physical, emotional or both.

Take a moment to STOP and BREATH

Sometimes you just need a moment or to find someone to help you realise that it’s a natural part of life and notice that you have everything you need to move forward in a way that works for you.

"I feel lost"

It’s OK to feel lost or not know what to do next. Sometimes the best thing to do when you do not know what to do, is nothing and be in the space of not knowing for a moment. Or maybe you just need someone to help you find your way forward.

"No one understands me"

You are unique and so are the experiences that you have had and the way that you see the world. That’s amazing!

The only person that really understands you and what you need is yourself, so it’s important that if you are looking for support that the therapy evolves from and around you.

Sometimes you just need someone to help you realise you have everything you need, help you find your inner resources again or find a practical way forward, that works for you.

"I still struggle with grief"

Sometimes grief is experienced immediately and sometimes it comes out over months or even years and affects your life in different ways.

It’s OK. Death and loss are part of what it means to be human but can be extremely difficult to experience at times and for different reasons.

Allow yourself to acknowledge where you are.
Take each day as it comes,
moment by moment.

You CAN handle this and it's ok if you need some support now or in the future.
