Mental ill health currently affects 1 in 4 people in the UK. You may be supporting someone with mental ill health, or you may yourself suffer with mental health issues; or you fall into both these categories.
If you are supporting someone close to you with mental ill health, it is important to seek support for yourself. At Sensera Counselling I aim to support you on a journey to take care of yourself emotionally and to help you to recognise and acknowledge the limits of what you can give. You need someone outside the family to discuss your frustrations and hurt.
I understand the strains and stresses of how mental health can affect families. I understand that it can be a painful and traumatic time; sometimes creating tension, uncertainty, and stress. I can support you by showing patience and care and offering non-judgemental support. I can help you to work through an entire range of emotions such as guilt, fear, anger, and sadness; allowing you to have your feelings listened to heard and respected.
You may be struggling with your own mental health. You may be experiencing symptoms such as anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties or isolation. I can provide you with time and space to work through your problems to regain wellbeing and balance in your life.
