A Blog On Counselling, and on Life, Love & Laughter And All That Gets in The Way

blog on counselling and psychology
This blog is part of my wider site on counselling & psychology. None of what is written here should be seen as a replacement for therapy or counselling. None of these blogs is written for any specific individual, but aims to inform the wider audience of themes, topics, issues and debates in the field of personal growth and psychological healing.

For individual counselling (face-to-face or at a distance through online sessions) please contact me: my details are available under the Contact section of the menu.

Shame’s Soapbox

3 April 2023 By Aernout

Shame sends us into exile, convinced that we are somehow not worthy. There’s good news: you can dial down the volume of shame so you can live connected to self and others.
