Life is never 100% smooth and sometimes that up hill struggle can just seem so exhausting and like it's never going to end! One of the biggest misconceptions about seeking counselling is that it is a sign of weakness. In fact, it is the opposite. Recognising your limitations and need for help by seeking professional therapy is a sign of both strength and determination for you to live a productive and meaningful life. As a counsellor I believe that by simply listening to your story with a fresh unbiased ear in a safe and non-judgemental environment I can offer you a different perspective and encourage you to view your situation with a new clarity. Counselling is not an advice service, but somewhere you can openly discuss and explore your feelings and your situation to gain understanding and acceptance around it. With insight and understanding, it is hopeful that you will start to see a way that you can move successfully forward in your life.
