My name is Hayley and I'm an experienced, qualified counselling therapist
Finding the right counselor to guide you through tough times can be a tricky journey, especially when you're feeling lost, anxious, down, or just overwhelmed by everything going on. Navigating through the options to find someone you click with can be confusing and a bit intimidating, but it's super important to find that right match for you. I'm here to help you take that step.
Life throws curveballs, like experiencing a loss, surviving something traumatic, dealing with a relationship ending, or simply feeling like you've lost your way. You might be feeling alone, confused, trapped, or in utter despair.
When you're feeling your lowest, it's crucial to find someone you can truly trust with your deepest thoughts and feelings. I've been in that spot myself and understand how overwhelming and scary it can feel to seek help.
