Hello and thanks for taking the time to have a look at my page, I hope you have found what you were looking for.
Psychological therapy is a great way to explore and make sense of difficulties that you might be having at the moment, or have had in the past. There may be situations, however, where you might need more immediate help. For example, if you feel you are in a crisis or are at risk of harm.
