Helpful Resources
There are many helpful resources that can assist us as we work on your problems together. I wanted to list a few examples for you. Many of my clients have found such resources to be extremely useful in supporting and complementing their time in therapy. Although what follows is a relatively short list I hope it provides a flavour of the wide range and diversity of resources that are available. They each, in their own way, can make a positive contribution, whether large or small, towards creating effective counselling solutions to the difficulties you now face.
Of course each of us is unique, and as such we all have differing needs and tastes. That said I hope that there may be something on the following list that will also support you in your own journey towards greater emotional and psychological health and well-being.
