It's so important that we give ourselves the same love and respect that we give to others. A part of healing is to get on well with yourself.

If you are finding it hard to keep going, please reach out to friends and family for help. If that's not an option for you then do seek counselling, talking can and does help.

So how do you find a counsellor ?

Although society is becoming more aware of mental health, it’s still something many people struggle to talk about openly, which is a real pity.

If you’re looking for private counselling, a good place to start is online with accredited organisations such as the NCPS www.ncps.com for example. These directories offer brief profiles of counsellors, their approaches, and their areas of expertise, along with a no‑obligation way to get in touch.

It’s a simple, safe way to explore who might be the right fit for you.

In support of Mental Health Awareness Week, lets take a moment to reach out to someone we haven't spoken to in a while. A simple message or a brief chat can make a real difference to their day - and to yours.

It's good to talk, and even better to reconnect with the people that really matter.

Doing a crossword with a cuppa is one of my little daily rituals – wonderfully relaxing, especially as the answers are tucked away at the back, so there’s no pressure.
Today’s clue stopped me in my tracks: “grief” – 3 letters.
Three letters to capture an experience that reshapes us. I couldn’t quite compute how something so vast, so personal, could be condensed into something so small.
For many people, the transition after losing someone can feel overwhelming. If you find yourself feeling “stuck” or struggling to manage day-to-day life, it may be a sign that you’d benefit from the support of a bereavement counsellor.
There are many places to turn for help, including:
• Your local hospice
• Marie Curie
• Cruse
• Private counsellors, such as myself
The crossword’s answer was “woe”, defined as great sorrow, grief, or misery.
Is it a good description? In some ways, yes – it captures the heaviness. But grief is also so much more layered, unpredictable, and deeply human than any single word can hold.
