How We Can Help
Counselling can help if you are:
-
Feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or experiencing panic attacks
-
Struggling with low mood or feeling disconnected
-
Lacking confidence or finding it hard to cope
-
Facing challenges in personal or family relationships
-
Dealing with loss, grief, or a difficult situation
-
Experiencing stress or work-related issues
A Space Just for You
Counselling offers a safe, confidential environment where you can talk openly—about thoughts and feelings you may not feel able to share with friends or family. Your counsellor won’t give advice or tell you what to do, but will support you in exploring your experiences and making your own choices.
Together, you’ll reflect on how past experiences, current challenges, or low self-confidence may be affecting your life and relationships, and begin to find new ways forward.
Confidentiality
All sessions are private and secure, in line with current legislation and professional ethical standards, so you can speak freely without fear of judgment or breach of trust.
