Conversations on the Move: Walking, Talking, and Supporting Mental Health

On 17th August 2025, Steven Gregson embarked on a remarkable walking challenge for Men Walking and Talking. I joined him for one of the seven trips and experienced first hand the healing power of conversation, connection, and presence. From live podcast recordings to reflective walks, this blog explores how community, empathy, and support mirror the principles of person-centred counselling — and why talking can truly be the start of change.

Silence in Counselling: How Pausing Can Help Reduce Anxiety, Overthinking, and Support Healing

Silence can feel comforting, or it can feel overwhelming — especially when dealing with anxiety, overthinking, or grief. At As Light As A Feather Counselling in Huddersfield, I provide a safe, non-judgemental space where silence can be explored, embraced, and understood. From the everyday pressure of instant replies to the quiet reflection needed during loss, counselling offers a chance to pause, breathe, and find clarity. Learn how embracing silence — both in life and in therapy — can help you process emotions, feel calmer, and support your personal journey of healing.

In this post, I explore how such events resonate through generations and what they teach us about human connection and emotional resilience.
