Counselling in Surfers Paradise, QLD

You may find your oh so busy lives and related demands lead you to be pre-occupied with any of worry, guilt, resentment, irritability, frustration, tiredness and exhaustion. I am focused on supporting individuals, relationships and families challenged with anxiety, depression, anger , dependencies, enduring worry and overwhelm, work-life balance, family conflict, financial strains and other presenting challenges.

So many say "I just want to be normal" especially if they have experience trauma in their lives. Many clients don't trust easily if they have been betrayed and fear they are "stuck forever... nothing will change... " .
