With Men’s Health Week coming up from 15–21 June, Greenhill Counselling is encouraging men to check in on their mental health and challenge the idea that “just getting on with it” is enough. Men’s Health Week isn’t only about physical health—it’s also a reminder to pause, reflect, and give your mental well-being the attention it […]
Tell Them Theory encourages noticing and verbalising the good in others. This simple practice rewires our brains away from negativity, strengthens relationships, supports children’s development, and creates a ripple effect of connection, confidence, and compassion—improving wellbeing for individuals, families, and communities.
We often talk about mindset as if it’s simply about being more positive or optimistic. But mindset isn’t about forcing a smile or pretending life is easier than it is. At its core, mindset is about perspective — the lens through which we interpret what’s happening around us. And that lens quietly shapes our reality. […]
Counselling goals are not rigid targets or deadlines, but a shared understanding of where you are now and where you would like to be.
The Christmas period is often wrapped in messages of joy, togetherness, and celebration.

Burnout isn’t just about being tired. It’s the chronic state of stress and overwhelm that leaves people feeling disconnected, unmotivated, and sometimes even hopeless. It doesn’t go away with a weekend off […]
Let’s talk about something many of us face quietly, behind the scenes of our daily lives: negative thoughts. That inner critic that whispers (or shouts) things like “I’m not good enough,” “I always mess things up,” or “What’s the point?” As a counsellor, I’ve sat with many people who’ve battled these thoughts.
