Welcome to Coastal Mind: A Therapy-Inspired Blog for Wellbeing & Self-Discovery

Hello and welcome I’m so glad you’re here.

I’m the founder of Coastal Path Counselling, a humanistic and neurodivergent affirming counselling practice based in Swansea and online. As an integrated counsellor, I work from a person-centred, Gestalt, and existential perspective offering therapy that values your unique experience, voice, and pace.

This blog, Coastal Mind, is an extension of that ethos. It’s a place for compassionate reflections on emotional wellbeing, personal growth, neurodivergence, and mental health. I started this blog to share thoughtful, grounding insights that invite you to explore your own inner world and remind you that you don’t have to navigate it alone.

You can expect posts on themes like:

  • Navigating burnout and overwhelm

  • Understanding your emotions

  • Embracing neurodivergent identity

  • Therapy reflections & everyday mindfulness

  • The courage to slow down and listen inward

You’ll also see calm visuals and practical guidance for self-awareness, self-care, and gentle resilience.

A Little About Me

I’m a neurodivergent counsellor passionate about creating affirming spaces where people feel safe to show up as they are. Outside of therapy, I love being near the sea, journaling, and having quiet cups of tea with too many books nearby.


Let’s Walk This Path Together 🌿

I hope this blog becomes a supportive space for you a reminder that healing doesn’t have to be loud or linear. Thank you for stopping by.
