What do you think of when you hear the word “blog?”
- Does it send you into hiding?
- Do you think “maybe I should do it but don’t know how?
- You’re not sure how it will benefit your business…
I know the value of blogging and what it’s done for me.
It’s revolutionized my practice!

Get ready for an exciting journey into Canva and Lumen5!
let me tell you a bit about why I believe in content marketing so much.
I started my journey into the content marketing world back in 2017.
I wanted to grow my counselling business and lower my hours at my care job.
Blogging was the first step.
But then I had to learn how to make them work for me in a bigger way.
I found some amazing mentors along the way – Jane Travis and Sandra Wilson to name a couple. I also joined groups for professional bloggers and social influencers.
It was a steep learning curve, but an enjoyable one. I have created so much content in the last three to four years, and have grown my counselling practice, as well as my supervision, coaching, and other offerings alongside it.
I don’t believe it would’ve been possible without entering the world of blogging and content marketing.
Guess what! In July 2019, I finally left my job to do what I love full time!
I’m a self-confessed geek. Always loved computers, and learning new creative things. This time it would work in the favour of my business endeavours!
Canva and Lumen5 are fantastic tools, and in these sessions, I’d like to teach you how to use them, without feeling overwhelmed by them for one second!
Your message needs to be heard, and this is a great way to get it out to the world!
Learning outcomes:
Why use images and video for your social media marketing
What can you create with Canva? What about Lumen5?
How long does it take to see content marketing work?

Have you heard these or similar ones?
“you should be doing things in this order or that order”,“why haven’t you done this”,why are you saying no, why are you being selfish”.
There are more, but those are just a few.
Would you like to do something about them?
As I wrote 20 Self-Care Habits, I reflected on the times that I would’ve found the things in the book helpful in my life journey.
I’ve been there. Done that.
Survived it and found a way to make things work.
All the things that I’ve learned (and continue to learn) are here, ready for you to put into practice.
Disclaimer: There is no quick fix! A mindset change will take a bit of time but it’s not impossible.
This mindset re-set will change your whole life.
Trust me, I’ve seen it in my own life, and in the lives of my clients!
By working on our boundaries and learning how to meet our needs, we get to know who we really are and how we want to live our lives to the fullest.
Why should we fit in a box someone else made somewhere in the ether?
Truth is – we don’t!

Throughout my journey as a counsellor, and as a supervisor, I’ve uncovered many aspects of supervision that are so important in everyday practice.
Of course, the main reason that we engage with a good supervisor for is to discuss client work.
But I don’t believe that it is the only thing we need from our supervisory relationship.
I have set a high standard for myself as a supervisor as well as of what I should be getting from my own supervision.
I’ve collated all of this knowledge in this supervision programme.
This programme will help you
Decide whether you want to train as a supervisor
Make a more informed choice when selecting the person who will supervise your practice
Gain more knowledge about the various supervision theories out there, and how to put them into practice
Learning Outcomes
The Theory – Overview of a supervision model – five theories to inform your practice and that will cover: relationships and responsibilities; how much support does a supervisee need?; what supervision provides from a functional perspective; contracting and boundaries; session planning and reviews;
In Practice – personal development, theoretical grounding, focusing on the supervisee; processing, venting, self-care, work through tough times, containment and holding; boundaries, challenge your work, develop self-awareness; practising to a safe standard / keeping clients safe; develop a reflective and autonomous practice
