People come to counselling for many different reasons.  You may be experiencing anxiety, low mood, grief, overwhelm, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem, a loss of self, family issues, work-related stress, health concerns or uncertainty about the future.

You may also find yourself constantly striving, overthinking, trying to meet expectations, or feeling that no achievement ever feels enough or there's never any let up.  For some people, success on the outside can sit alongside exhaustion, imposter feelings, unstable self-worth, constant comparison, fear of failure, or difficulty switching off.

Or perhaps you simply know that something doesn't feel right.  You may struggle to put your experience into words, feel confused about why you're feeling as you do, or find yourself carrying something that feels increasingly difficult to hold alone.  Whatever brings you here, you don't need to have everything worked out before beginning therapy.  Sometimes the first step is simply having a space where you can begin to think, feel and understand yourself more freely.
