Seeking help when life feels overwhelming can be an act of courage, especially when we think we should be able to sort ourselves out and each stage of your life brings its unique challenges.
Are you starting to live your life independently and feel confused about the direction you want to take? Struggling with your intimate relationships, or you’re still looking for a partner? You might want to become a parent and are aware of the unsolved problems your own childhood left behind.
Or maybe you are a parent and find it difficult to relate to your child? You find yourself without purpose and wondering why life feels empty? Your children have grown, are living their own lives and the void their leaving the nest feels overwhelming? If, on top of any of the above, you experience other difficulties, no matter how emotionally resilient you are, your distress might feel significant.
All of these life transitions are natural, and the struggles brought with each are as unique as we each are. Sometimes they are more destabilising than expected and it is normal to feel vulnerable.
Whether you find yourself in one of the above scenarios or face another difficulty, I can support you in finding your way through the challenges you are facing.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
