Personal Counselling

Are You Struggling With Someone, or Something in Your Life Right Now?

Everyday problems like stress, anxiety, work pressures, and relationship issues can significantly affect your life. Many people put off seeing a psychologist hoping to muddle through, but just wishing and hoping things will get better doesn't work. If you want things to really change you have to do something different. When you've already tried everything you know it can feel almost impossible to figure out the next step on your own. If it's a new problem, you may even feel confused or completely lost, with no idea where to even start. Perhaps it's time to speak to a psychologist.

What is Anxiety?

Anxiety is more than just feeling worried or stressed. We all feel stressed or get worried from time to time and those feelings usually pass once the stressor is removed. For a person experiencing anxiety, these feelings cannot be easily controlled and can be quiet debilitating. Here's a simple checklist to measure if you have been affected by depression and anxiety in the past four weeks. Anxiety Checklist.
