At all stages of our lives we face mental, physical and emotional  challenges. Sometimes we can manage them and at others we may experience feeling depressed, overwhelmed, anxious or stuck. These are normal responses but they can leave us struggling to enjoy life, know which direction to take or even like there is something wrong with us. They may have been triggered by a traumatic event or a major life transition or it might be that there have been issues you have faced for years that you now feel less able to manage or feel ready to have some support in understanding.

Seeing a therapist offers you a safe space to work through your issues. It provides you with the opportunity to learn more about yourself, which might include learning how your past has shaped who you are now, why you feel the way you do, and the triggers for your thoughts, feelings and behaviour.

Depression/low mood
