Everyone is unique, so why not customise the counselling support that works for you or someone else.
There are three (3) options available to accommodate your busy schedule or life pressures and allow for a safe and private environment to ensure the communication works effectively.
- In person (face to face)

Depression – The encouraging news is that with proper assistance and backing, the majority of individuals struggling with depression can achieve full recovery.
Stress & Anxiety – Set up a stress-free area by acquiring effective strategies to manage stress and take back control. Utilise counselling to unlock problem-solving skills, become proficient in relaxation techniques, incorporate meditation, humour, and foster meaningful connections.
Anger Management – Are you having difficulty managing overwhelming anger that is leading to destructive behaviour? Developing effective strategies to control it can boost your self-belief, improve relationships, and increase personal fulfilment. Uncover how an experienced counsellor can help you on your anger management journey.
Grief & Loss – Dealing with grief and loss can result in substantial life changes making it challenging to adjust to these new circumstances. Recognising the stages of grief and mastering effective coping mechanisms can serve as a valuable initial step in the process of healing.
Drug & Alcohol – It’s not always easy to recognise that you need help with your alcohol or other drug use. You don’t have to deal with the harmful effects of alcohol or drug use by yourself.
Addiction – It is a complex issue that needs self care, self management and therapy to work out why addiction is or becoming a problem in your life and the lives of others.
It is crucial to take care of your mental well-being and reach out to experts for assistance to address inner struggles that may have a profound impact on one’s identity.
