You will need to discuss your feelings and emotions which can be upsetting at times. You may feel worse before you feel better. But counselling can be very rewarding when you start to overcome your negative feelings and begin to move on with your life.

When problems at home, at work, or even in the distant past take over our life we feel out of control. Counselling allows you to talk openly about your problems without fear of criticism or judgement. We all make mistakes in life, we can learn from these and move on.

People often use drink, gamble or shop in reaction to stressful situations in their life. This provides a pleasurable distraction, but can become compulsive and start to interfere with their work, relationships or health. Counselling can help you identify the reasons behind your addiction and identify ways of overcoming it.
