Move on With Life

Move on With Life Move on with Life Counselling /Psychotherapy Service I therefore offer an initial appointment free of charge so we can decide if we are able to work together.

Do you feel stuck in a Rut, Depressed, and Confused or feel that you are Wandering Aimlessly through Your Life? ABOUT ME

I believe that our life experiences shape who we are and sometimes those experiences can affect us adversely causing us distress, to feel unhappy, confused, or even at worst worthless. I firmly believe that the relationship with your Therapist is a valuable one and of the most

important choices you will make. I see the Therapist Client relationship as an open and honest relationship. As a therapist I will always do my upmost to treat you with respect, regardless of your race, religion, sexuality, disability, age, class or lifestyle. I will listen to you, accept you for who you are, and be honest with you. I am an honest, accepting, cheerful, tolerant and patient person with a good sense of humour. I feel passionate about counselling. I have a real trust in the process we undertake and believe that sometimes we need help to understand and perhaps change our process and way of being in order to live a happy and fulfilled life. I firmly believe it is easy to put a sticking plaster on our issues to visit a Dr and follow a medical route. However I feel if we are to benefit long term the route to take is to actually have the courage to face up to the underlying issues which are causing us to feel unhappy or unfulfilled to look in the mirror and work through our issues.

It occurred to Pooh and Piglet that they hadn't heard from Eeyore for several days, so they put on their hats and coats on and trotted to Eeyore's.

"Hello Pooh. Hello Piglet," said Eeyore.

"We just thought we'd check in on you," said Piglet, "because we hadn't heard from you, and so we wanted to know if you were ok."

"Am I okay?" Eeyore asked. "Well, I don't know. Are any of us really okay? That's what I ask myself. All I can tell you, Pooh and Piglet, is that right now I feel really rather Sad, and Alone, and Not Much Fun. Which is why I haven't bothered you. Because you wouldn't want to waste your time hanging out with someone who is Not Much Fun To Be Around, would you now."

Piglet, and Piglet both sat down, one on either side of Eeyore.

Eeyore looked surprised. "What are you doing?"

"We're sitting here with you," said Pooh, "because we are your friends. And true friends don't care if someone is feeling Sad, or Alone, or Not Much Fun To Be Around. True friends are there for you so here we are."

"Oh," said Eeyore. "And the three of them sat there in silence, and while Pooh and Piglet said nothing at all; somehow, imperceptibly, Eeyore started to feel a very tiny little bit better.

Because Pooh and Piglet were there.

No more; no less

Mental health care needs to be holistic and properly funded.

I'm a trustee of a mental health called Vetlife which provides support and emergency referrals for vets who are struggling with their mental health. Many people will be surprised to learn that vets have a su***de rate of around 4 times the national average.

Last year I spoke to dozens of people who were struggling to access the mental health care that they desperately needed. Some people who were at crisis point were having to wait weeks or months for an appointment.

Governments need to realise that under funding mental health services does not save the country any money. Mental health issues are one of the major causes of being signed off work, so not only are individuals suffering but it is also a logistical challenge for businesses and it impacts on the economy.

This pandemic has only increased the mental health pressures for many people as they worry about their families getting sick with Covid-19, or their jobs and businesses.

For years we have been pushing for mental health care services to be funded and delivered with equal importance as physical health care. People shouldn't have to suffer without the support they desperately need. Please share if you agree.
