Grief and Loss
Grief and loss are natural responses to a loved one’s death, affecting emotional, physical, and social wellbeing during the period of mourning.
Trauma and PTSD
Trauma is a response to a deeply distressing or disturbing event/events, often resulting in long-lasting psychological effects.
Depression
A persistent condition affecting mood, thoughts, and daily functioning, marked by overwhelming sadness, hopelessness, and loss of interest in life.
Anxiety
A normal response to stress or danger, marked by worry or fear. When persistent or excessive, it can disrupt daily life and may become an anxiety disorder.
Adjustment Conditions
Intense responses to stressful life events or changes. They arise from specific stressors, like major transitions or crises, and can temporarily disrupt daily functioning.
Self-esteem
Healthy self-esteem is a balanced, positive view of oneself. Low self-esteem involves feelings of inadequacy or unworthiness and can affect mental health, relationships, and life satisfaction.
Relationship Conflict/Separation
Conflicts often arise from unmet needs, misunderstandings, or differing values and communication styles. Understanding and addressing these issues- or navigating separation- can improve coping and outcomes.
Well-being/Stress Management
Essential for a balanced life. Managed well, stress can motivate; unmanaged, it harms mental and physical health. Well-being involves nurturing emotional, mental, and physical health to maintain balance.
Workplace Stress
A common issue that can affect mental and physical health. Understanding its causes is key to managing it effectively.
Parenting
Challenges are a natural part of raising children. Effective communication, consistency, and support help parents navigate issues and foster a positive family environment for healthy child development.
Companion Animal Loss
Losing a companion animal is deeply emotional. Honouring the bond, seeking support, and allowing yourself to grieve can help you navigate this loss.
Non-Death Related Loss
Grief can arise from relationship endings or major life changes, like job loss or illness. These losses can be as impactful as losing a loved one, bringing a range of emotions and challenges.
