Counselling & Psychotherapy
How are you?
Seriously, how are you?
Are you happy with your life and feel that you can weather any storm?
Or do you sometimes feel that things are getting on top of you?
It's okay to not feel okay!
Life can throw a lot our way sometimes.
We might feel overwhelmed, anxious, worried, sad or exhausted in response.
Feeling this way is not a sign of weakness.
We don't have to feel ashamed for wanting help.
Talking helps
Talking things over can help us to see things clearer.
Yet, we often don‘t talk about our struggles.
Instead, we bottle things up, keep a stiff upper lip and try to carry on.
That can work for some time, but ignoring our struggles rarely ever makes them disappear.
The opposite is often the case. We feel lonely and lose all optimism.
We believe that life will always be bleak or even get worse.
However, talking about our experiences and feelings can help.
"Shame dies when stories are told in safe spaces."

Relationships matter
There are no simple psychological life-hacks.
Being human means that we are social creatures.
Relationships with others are at the core of our well-being.
This is true even if we feel quite introverted and tend to dislike social situations.
We might prefer connecting with others in different ways, for example online.
Nonetheless, relationships with others are extremely important.
Counselling & Psychotherapy
Family and friends can be a great support.
However, personal relationships often have strings attached.
We might not feel comfortable sharing certain thoughts or feelings.
We might worry about what people think of us.
Some of those close to us might be biased in their opinion.
Talking to a trained professional helps avoid all this.
Counselling provides a safe, confidential, and non-judgmental environment.
It creates a space where we can unpack all the heavy baggage we carry around with us.
