Informative Resources
This section brings together a range of gentle lists and ideas. Things you can read, browse, or return to when thinking feels hard. These aren’t worksheets or tasks to complete, just collections of options you might find helpful in different moments.
Not everything here will resonate, and that’s okay. You’re invited to take what feels supportive, leave what doesn’t, and come back to these lists in your own time. The intention is to reduce the mental load by offering ideas in one place, so you don’t have to start from scratch when energy or capacity is low.
I’m not a clinician. These resources are not comprehensive and aren’t a replacement for professional advice or support. They’re here as gentle ideas and starting points. You get to choose what fits for you.
Words For When You Need Them
Sometimes finding the right words in tricky situations — whether it’s asking for support, setting boundaries, or responding to unhelpful comments — can feel overwhelming. Words for When You Need Them is a collection of scripts, examples, and gentle guidance you can use or adapt in real-life conversations. They’re designed to help you communicate your needs, protect your boundaries, and navigate challenging moments with compassion for yourself and others.
No matter your energy, your comfort level, or your situation, these words are here for you — to borrow, adapt, or simply inspire.
DBT Skills
These tools draw largely from Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), a skills-based therapy that teaches practical ways to navigate intense emotions, distress, and relationships. The skills are organised into sections so you can find the kind of support that fits what you’re experiencing right now.
You might approach these tools with curiosity and gentleness. Different moments — and different parts of you — may need different kinds of support. This space is here to offer options, care, and guidance when things feel hard.
