WHAT I DO
Most of us experience times which are painful, confusing and a struggle. For some these problems have lasted a long time and come with symptoms that are hard to live with. Others might be experiencing a shorter period of crisis and confusion.
Seeing a caring counsellor can help you express pent up feelings, understand the problem more clearly, find solutions, learn strategies and tools to resolve your issues, and use different therapy approaches to deeply heal your emotions.
