We’re here to listen.

Counselling, also known as talking therapy, can help if you’re struggling with anxiety or depression, or even low self-esteem. It gives you the opportunity to explore your feelings and thoughts and can offer strategies for managing them.

Or if you need support with bereavement or processing traumatic experiences, such as domestic abuse, counselling can provide a structured approach to healing.

We offer you a safe and confidential space to share your feelings—online or in person. Opening up about what’s bothering you is often the first step toward lasting inner peace
