It's been a busy few weeks at Serendipity Counselling York 🧡

We've celebrated the completion of our first EARN Programme in partnership with Menfulness, continued supporting clients across York and North Yorkshire, welcomed new referrals, and we're preparing to open a new office - I know! Another one!

As the organisation continues to grow, one thing remains incredibly important to us: being present in the communities we serve.

That's why I'm really looking forward to bringing members of the Serendipity team to York Pride this year. Pride is a celebration of identity, community and belonging, and it's important to us that we show up, stand alongside our LGBTQ+ community, and make mental health support visible, accessible and inclusive.

If you're coming along, please do come and find us. We'd love to meet you, hear your story, and say hello.

We'll have our Pride stickers, sweets, wellbeing resources, a community wellbeing activity, and—if the weather forecast is right—suncream for anyone who needs it! ☀️🌈

Being part of York's community has always been at the heart of what we do, and we're looking forward to spending the day with so many incredible people.

See you tomorrow at Pride!🏳️‍🌈

Sometimes the biggest changes don’t begin with a dramatic moment — they start with a small shift in perspective.

Therapy can help you understand your thoughts, challenge old patterns, and create healthier ways of coping, communicating, and living. Change rarely happens overnight, but with support, reflection, and self-awareness, it is possible to move towards a life that feels calmer, more balanced, and more connected to who you are. 🧡

At Serendipity Counselling York, we offer a warm, supportive space for adults, young people, and couples — both in-person and online.

If you’ve been thinking about reaching out, this could be your sign to take the first step.

Healthy habits don’t have to be extreme to make a difference.

Often, it’s the small things we repeat consistently that have the biggest impact on our mental and physical wellbeing 🧡

This week, we’re sharing 6 simple lifestyle habits that can support:
• Better emotional wellbeing
• Improved energy and focus
• Reduced stress and overwhelm
• A healthier relationship with yourself

Remember — wellbeing isn’t about perfection. It’s about building sustainable habits that help you feel more grounded, balanced, and supported in everyday life.

Which habit do you find hardest to maintain consistently?

Mental Health Awareness Week is a reminder, but let’s keep the conversation going far beyond. It’s okay to talk about your mental health—this week, next week, and every week. Let’s normalise open conversations, support one another, and remember: You’re never alone in this. How are you really feeling today? 🧡

Accountability in action 🧡

Last night at the
we welcomed from to lead our Week 3 session on Accountability — and what a powerful conversation it sparked.

There’s something incredibly impactful about men coming together in a space where showing up, being honest, and supporting one another is not only encouraged… but expected.

We explored accountability across three tiers-

Self-accountability – keeping the promises you make to yourself, even when motivation dips

Peer accountability – being supported, challenged and encouraged by others who “get it”

Community accountability – belonging to something bigger, where your presence matters and consistency is seen

Accountability isn’t about pressure or perfection.
It’s about:

✔️ Showing up when it’s hard
✔️ Being witnessed in your progress
✔️ Knowing someone will notice if you’re not there

Matty spoke about what accountability looks like within Menfulness — how community, shared experience, and consistency can create real, lasting change. You could feel the shift in the room as the group began to recognise the role they play in each other’s progress.

This is what EARN is all about.
Not just individual change — but collective growth.

A huge thank you to Matty for your honesty, energy and passion. And to the group — for continuing to show up for yourselves and each other 👏🧡

Bobby, Associate Counsellor at Serendipity Counselling York, speaking with about men’s mental health.

Opening up isn’t always easy — especially for men who’ve been taught to carry things on their own.

Bobby shares insight into why so many men struggle in silence, and how counselling can offer a space to be heard, understood, and supported without judgement.

🧡 You don’t have to do it alone.
