Adults

Making a decision to see a psychologist can be a difficult one. Acknowledging there is a problem in your life and arriving at the point where you are ready to talk about it can be hard.

Talking to friends and loved ones can be supportive but sometimes it is difficult for people we know well to be objective and honest because of their feelings for us and of their roles in our lives. Our family and friends cannot recognise the type or seriousness of a psychological problem, nor the best way for us to cope with it. When difficulties arise a professional can help you work through areas of concern. Specific issues that may be addressed include:

  • Addictive behaviours
  • Anger management
  • Anxiety
  • Body image
  • Career guidance
  • Conflict resolution
  • Depression
  • Disabilities and Special needs
  • Divorce and Family breakdown
  • Fertility
  • Goal setting
  • Grief and Loss
  • Illness of a family member
  • Organizational skills
  • Preganancy
  • Procrastination and motivation issues
  • Relaxation and stress management
  • Risk taking behaviours
  • Same sex attraction/Gender identity
  • Self esteem building
  • Sleep issues
  • Time management
  • Workplace issues
