After years of seeing the profound breakthroughs that happen when people connect with their own thoughts on paper, I wanted to create a gentler way in.
I wanted to build a bridge between the therapy room and your everyday life.
That is why I created the 8-Week Therapy Journal.
Our Therapy Journal - More Than a Blank Page: A Gentle Companion
This isn't just a notebook; it's a downloadable PDF guide designed to be a gentle companion on your therapeutic journey. I’ve carefully structured it to mirror the process of therapy itself—a journey of reflection, intention-setting, and compassionate curiosity.
Each of the eight weeks, you'll be guided by the same structure:
Setting an intention for your week.
Tuning into your senses with a mindfulness exercise.
Exploring a deep, powerful "I'm curious..." question.
Engaging in a therapeutic activity.
Reflecting on what joy feels like in your body.
It's a framework designed to help you connect with yourself, notice your patterns, and give a voice to the parts of you that are waiting to be heard.
Exploring the Questions That Matter
The heart of the journal lies in the weekly "I'm curious..." prompts. These are the big, powerful questions that often sit beneath the surface of our daily struggles:
Why do we care so much about what other people think?
Why does our past trauma show up in our present relationships?
Why is it so hard to be as kind to ourselves as we are to our friends?
This journal doesn't give you the answers. It creates a safe space for you to find your own. It’s an invitation to stop just reacting to life, and to start understanding the 'why' behind your feelings and behaviours.
The Foundation of Your Transformation
This journal is a powerful tool on its own, but it was created to be the foundation of our 8-Week Transformation Programme. In the programme, this guided journey is combined with eight one-to-one therapy sessions with me, and monthly wellbeing gifts sent to your door.
Using the journal provides the anchor for our work together, helping you get the absolute most out of every single session. It’s how we turn insights into real, lasting change. It’s how we move from just talking about healing, to actively living it.
You Are in the Process of Becoming
As the journal reminds you: you are not stuck, you are not broken, you are in the process of becoming. This tool is a way to honour that process, to give it space, and to treat yourself with the compassion you deserve.
If you are ready to take your healing journey deeper, this is where you start.
