Hello Sunshine Therapy

September is Su***de Prevention Month, and it's important to remind you that every day, not just today, your life matters. Even when things feel hopeless and dark, don’t give up – you've come this far for a reason. You have the strength to get through any battle you're facing, and remember, you are never alone. You have a purpose, and you are loved more than you realize, even when it feels otherwise. 🩵

Just a reminder 🩵

A lovely client review from one of our new clients, A lovely way to start a Thursday morning.

The goals of grief or bereavement counselling commonly encompass four main stages:

* Recognising the reality of the loss.
* Dealing with the emotional pain of grief.
* Adjusting to a life without the departed.
* Maintaining a connection with the lost loved one while finding ways to move forward in life.
*
* Providing a safe space for individuals to express their feelings and emotions.
* Offering coping strategies to manage grief and navigate through the healing process.
* Helping individuals find meaning and purpose after experiencing loss.
Supporting individuals in establishing a new normal and rebuilding their lives while honouring the memory of the departed.

Gambling can be a very addictive and destructive activity that can have serious consequences for individuals and their families. Here are some of the perils of gambling:

Financial problems: Gambling addiction can lead to severe financial problems, including debt, bankruptcy, and the loss of homes, cars, and other assets.

Mental health issues: Gambling addiction can also lead to mental health issues such as anxiety, depression, and even su***de.

Relationship problems: Gambling addiction can also strain relationships with family and friends, as well as lead to divorce or other forms of separation.

Health problems: Finally, gambling addiction can also lead to physical health problems such as stress, insomnia, and other forms of mental and physical exhaustion.

Breaking free from addiction is a significant achievement that requires a great deal of courage, determination, and support.

By seeking help and taking proactive steps towards change, you have demonstrated all of these qualities and more.

Remember that recovery is a journey, and it is important to continue to take care of yourself and your mental health as you move forward.

If you are stuck in the messy bit of life right now, Know that it doesn't last forever and sometimes the mess can lead to beautiful things

A lovely review to receive on a Monday morning, but even more rewarding working with her little boy and see him progress through Hello Sunshine therapy.

A substance use disorder extends beyond just physical reliance on drugs or alcohol. Even post-detox, when the body is no longer dependent, the risk of relapse remains high. Various psychological and social factors can act as potent triggers for relapse. At Hello Sunshine Therapy, we are here to support you. Reach out to us today.

A gentle reminder that we can still be kind and have boundaries. We are not responsible for the actions of others.

Separation anxiety isn't exclusive to small children; it can also affect teenagers and adults.

It's perfectly normal for your kids to want to be close, but it becomes an issue when it starts causing difficulties.
Support them as much as they need and are able to. Sometimes, they may want to be with you, but due to school, work, or other commitments, it may not be feasible.

It's crucial for their healthy growth that they understand that they (and you) will be fine during separations. Otherwise, it can limit their world and lead to distress for everyone involved.

Separation anxiety stems from a fear of something happening to either of you while apart. The fear is genuine but temporary. Their anxiety will lessen once they realise they are okay without you. The sooner they experience this, the quicker they can find peace.
