This pretty much sums up Psychotherapy ;)

Today marks World Suicide Prevention Day. As of 2011, an estimated one million people per year die by suicide. Suicide is the most common cause of death for people aged 15 24 (WHO). More people die from suicide than from murder and war; it is the 13th leading cause of death worldwide (WHO). These are pretty astonishing statistics. If you or someone you know is struggling with mental health, reach out! Seek therapy or just ask for help. It can make a world of a difference.

These are some of the benefits of counselling. Do you have anything to lose?

Good day everyone! I came across this Self-care Wheel that I thought I would share. Between raising a family, career, making time for your spouse/significant other, and up-keep of your home....oftentimes we put ourselves last. Therefore I challenge you to make a little time for self-care this weekend. This wheel can give you some ideas- if you're stuck. It's so important to find balance in your life. Have a wonderful weekend everyone :)

Oftentimes in session, I find the following issues to be the crux of the problem: control, blame and resistance. It takes strength to own up to your piece. And it takes determination to want to truly change your life. And in this day and age of social media, you can't help but feel that the grass is always greener.. Isn't it time to accept your life and live it? I came across this interesting post. Give it a read

Here is a little more information about some of the counselling services that I provide.
