A Farewell Message From Alethea
It is with a heavy heart that I announce that Alethea Holistic and Healing Services as a company has not survived Covid. We gave it our best shot, but I can no longer continue to pay overheads while our premises remain closed to the general public. The nature of my work is face to face, and although online support is available, I have not
Let Your Presence Be Your Gift This Christmas Time
Let Your Presence Be Your Gift This Christmas Time When a presence of being is discovered, consciousness awakens. In this place, we can just “be”. It’s a sacred place. Our being sits in every feeling we feel. Allowing yourself to feel you're authentic self involves you experiencing every emotion. The good, the bad, and the ugly. Don’t allow anyone to minimize your pain or
Halloween 10k Sponsored Walk To Support MQI
Join us for our Halloween 10k sponsored walk in support of Merchant Quays Ireland. #Alethea missed doing the Dublin Women’s Mini Marathon this year due to covid, so we became creative! On Halloween at 12 noon, the therapists at Alethea will do a 10k walk around Corkagh Park Clondalkin to support Merchants Quay Ireland. Of course, they will be in full Witch attire and
Emotional Fatigue
Emotional fatigue is a reality and can happen to any of us. The world is always changing. Change can be difficult for anyone. It takes us out of our comfort zone. But this time, Covid 19 came unexpectedly, rapidly, and uninvited. In a matter of months, we have had to make real changes to our daily living. Some of these changes were externally controlled,
The Big Wave Of Mental Health Issues
Please: do not neglect your mental health. As mental health professionals, we have seen this “tsunami” first hand over the past months. There is a distinctive shift in therapy and the therapeutic interventions required. Now more than ever, it is vital that plentiful and prompt delivery of mental health services are available. The term “mental health” can be misleading and carries a stigma in
Time For A New Normal
It's time for a new normal! Talk therapy is the healthy diet for the mind. We’re living in challenging times. Changes can be difficult for all of us. 3 months ago (can you believe that time has passed) we were faced with a change like we’ve never experienced. At Alethea, our work is all about supporting others to overcome challenging times. We are firstly
Listening is the new hug
Connecting in a new way: Listening is the new hug!🧡 A hug and human connection is the first thing we do if someone is struggling! Not been able to extend our hand to someone struggling is alien to us all as human beings, not been held ourselves is hard too. We’re adjusting in our world to supporting and been supported in a very different
The Sad Reality Of Emotional Abuse
Emotional abuse is real - You are not crazy! OUR FRONTLINE PEOPLE ARE OUR FIRST RESPONDERS, AND OUR MENTAL HEALTH PROFESSIONALS ARE OUR LAST RESPONDERS. Not all wounds are visible! Emotional abuse is real, and it requires recovery from the lasting post traumatic stress that a human endures as a result of it. As mental health professionals, we have been supporting people with the

Toxic Positivity & Your Mental Health
Positivity can be toxic and it can be bad for your mental health. If we went back to this time last year, I don’t believe any of us expected to be experiencing what we are right now in our world. The entire world is in survival mode. Every normal we knew is gone and is replaced by everything that is abnormal. How do we
Testimonials: Online Choice Therapy For Children
The online choice therapy videos have been happening daily in the past 3 weeks on Alethea's Facebook page. The objective of the videos is to support children and their families in finding new and better ways of relating with each other. Now more than ever, it’s so important to take care of the minds of the small people around us. This may also be
Children Do As They See
Teach our small children to love, no to hate. Children do not do what they’re told, they do as they see. Teaching our children responsibility for their actions has to be modeled. It’s our greatest responsibility as parents to be the best versions of ourselves that we can be. Our small people watch everything, we know that, they are sponges, and they repeat what
