People come to counselling for many reasons. You might be here because you're experiencing uncertainty, conflicts or losses in your life; or feel burdened by difficult emotions you've been carrying for too long. Perhaps you wish to feel differently about yourself and your relationships or something has changed. Maybe there's a sense your life is not where you expected it to be. Stress, anxiety, upset and pain, can intrude upon and disrupt your everyday existence. It can leave you feeling overwhelmed, isolated and questioning your ability to cope.
