Summary
Our lives can be overwhelming, especially when you know something feels too difficult to manage yourself. Finding the right person to trust is important as you reach toward answers and improve your emotional and mental health. In seeking therapy, you need to have the security of a non-judgmental and compassionate person who can move you from feelings of vulnerability or shame and instead find self-love and motivation to make changes. I’ll be there for you. Individual and group counselling available.
