Everyone can experience times when they feel overwhelmed and unsure about their life. This can feel distressing, confusing and frightening and can lead to unwanted thoughts, feelings and behaviours and a lack of connection to self and others. Unresolved issues from the past can also impact on how you are feeling and can lead you to feel stuck and unable to move forward.
If you are experiencing these things it could be helpful to access some individual counselling.
Counselling can help you to explore your situation so that you can begin to gain clarity and increase your awareness. With your counsellor you can begin to find the coping strategies and resources that will enable and empower you to cope in those difficult or challenging situations you are facing. Counselling can help you to gain a greater insight into how you can begin to make the changes in your life that will help you to move your life forward in the direction you would like it to go.
Individual Counselling can also be helpful if you would like to undertake some personal growth and development.
