How Sullivan Counselling Can Help You
We can often face challenges in our lives, and we cannot seem to overcome on our own or with the help of friends or family. These challenges often include situations, feelings, thoughts, or behaviours that are upsetting and disrupt our day-to-day living, and our relationships with others. Counselling can provide a safe place to explore and work through these challenges.
Counselling can also provide a safe place to explore new ways of thinking, and feeling, to bring about positive growth, and to learn helpful tools for day-to-day functioning and to improve relationships.
Sullivan Counselling can provide this safe place where you feel heard, supported, and understood.
