Counselling services

Sometimes, despite our best efforts to look after our mental wellbeing, life events occur that affect our mental health in ways we cannot manage alone. The stresses and strains of everyday life ranging from physical illness, having financial pressures, or life changes like a new baby or a relationship breakdown can mean that we find ourselves not just feeling low but overwhelmed. Below is a list of some organisations that can provide counselling support where you can talk to a trained therapist who will listen to you and help you find ways to deal with these difficult times. Please note that there may be a cost associated with some of these services.
