Free Mental Health & Counselling Resources

I’ve created this space to share a range of free tools that you might find helpful—whether you’re curious about counselling, supporting someone else, or looking for something to help make sense of your own experiences. You’ll find worksheets, infographics, journalling prompts and other visual resources here, all designed to be simple, clear and easy to use.

I’ll keep adding to this page over time, so feel free to check back or share with others who might benefit. These aren’t a replacement for therapy, but they might be a helpful starting point.

If something here resonates, I offer counselling in Plymouth for women feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or burnt out — you can read more about how I work.

You’re welcome to explore these at your own pace, and come back to them whenever you need.
