It’s Never Too Late for a New Beginning! Hi, I’m Sarah - Life can present us with many personal challenges. Do you feel anxious, lonely or depressed? Burnt-out or overwhelmed? Do you feel unheard or unable to express your needs in your relationships with your partner, family or friends? Maybe you are not sure what it is, but something doesn’t feel quite right? We all need help at some time to work through things. I understand that taking that first step to seek help can be hard - but the rewards can be great.

You may be feeling depressed, anxious, stressed or angry. Perhaps you were exposed to trauma. You may have experienced work-related issues where you were bullied or undervalued. There may be issues in your personal life with relationships or your health. You may have a disability, leaving you feeling stigmatised and isolated. Alternatively, you may be experiencing forensic/criminal matters and you need a report for court, or you are required to engage in counselling. I have nearly 20 years of experience helping people address a range of concerns.

Dealing with personal issues can feel overwhelming. Asking for help is the first step and is a positive thing to do for yourself. Are you experiencing family or relationship problems, personal issues such as anxiety, depression, loss of a loved one, low self esteem? Counselling is a conversation and enables you to express your concerns without judgement, to be heard, and find practical strategies to manage or resolve your issues, so that you can move forward in your life with confidence.
