Welcome
Feeling unseen or unheard? Having relationship issues, work problems, or have a big decision to make and don’t know which direction to take? Or simply needing connection? At iListentoYou, Karen Thomson will hold a safe and non-judgemental space for you to share whatever is on your mind, to allow a voice for your inner concerns and questions, and to help you find the answers you need to move forward.
We all go through difficult times, but don’t always necessarily have someone to talk to who can remain impartial, or who we can trust to keep our conversations confidential, or simply hear us without offering their own perspective or advice. It’s a lonely place to be. Sometimes, simply having someone to listen to us, without their need to immediately fix the issue, helps to enable us to feel validated, heard, and seen, and helps us to more easily work through any decisions we need to make.
In your session with Karen, she will listen with empathy, care, and deep interest to what is on your mind, allowing you the space to truly express yourself in a way you may not have been able to do in a very long time; building strength and confidence in your ability to know and feel what is the right path for you at that time. Karen can reflect back to you what she hears from her perspective, talk through any decisions, pros and cons, any pain points or mental blocks to moving forward, or she can simply be an ear for you to share what you need to get off your chest.
How I Listen to You Can Help
Why book a listening session?
Be Heard
Being heard is so important to our sense of self, and to release the frustration we can experience when holding in our thoughts
A Sense of Peace
Too much work, too much stress and not enough time to prioritise ourselves can lead to a sense of being a 'pressure-cooker' about to explode. Sharing thoughts and emotions in a safe space brings more peace and ease
Feel Validated
Really being listened to without judgement is a reassuring way to feel understood and validated, which is important to all of us
Feel Held
In our darkest times, often what we need most is simply the sense of being held, that someone has 'got you'. By holding space for you to express yourself, you will feel held (virtually) and like you matter; because you do
Gain Clarity
Talking things through can help to organise our thoughts, make sense of situations, and lead us to the next action step with more ease
Increased Mood
'A problem shared is a problem halved'. By getting your issues off your chest, your load will be lightened, freeing up energy which has been used up by worrying, and your mood will be significantly raised
