I could not sleep and was always on edge

I could not sleep and was always on edge, snapping at people without meaning to. I avoided counselling for a long time, but coming to sessions in Dunedin helped more than I expected. It gave me room to breathe and figure out how to handle things better.

I never had one big crisis, I just felt worn out

I never had one big crisis, I just felt worn out and unable to switch off. Talking it through showed me how much I had been carrying. The tools I learned in counselling have made a real difference in daily life.
