Individual Counselling for Adults

"I now see how owning our story and loving ourselves through that process is the bravest thing that we will ever do."

- Brene Brown

Perfectionism and People Pleasing

Do you place so much pressure on yourself to achieve and do everything "perfectly?" Do you often procrastinate on those daunting tasks? Do you feel this need for everyone to like you and/or find yourself hypervigilant to others' moods?This is perfectionism and people pleasing - it can be exhausting and lead to burnout.

Anxiety

Do you find yourself struggling to quiet your busy mind? Difficulty managing those spiralling thoughts? Are you constantly worrying and thinking of those"what if" scenarios? This is anxiety and so many people struggle with it.

Depression

Do you feel low most of the time? Feel like you're trudging through quicksand? Is it hard to find joy in the things you used to? This may be depression and you shouldn't have to face it alone.

Grief

Are you grieving the loss of a loved one? A miscarriage? A pet, job, or relationship? Grief can overwhelm you and lead to feelings of loneliness - like no one understands what you're going through. I understand and can help.
