You don't have to be in your suffering alone.

You've kept it to yourself for so freaking long. You've walled off your pain instead of asking other people for help because you didn't want to burden them.

You said, "Their pain is more important than mine." And you went underground with your pain. But it has come out in anxiety, depression, shame, loneliness and your fear of intimacy.

Your pain deserves attention. Full stop.

No if’s, and’s or but’s. No, "If it's the right time" or "If it's not a burden” or “If it doesn’t make them sad or angry.” Nope.

In counselling, you and I will create a space for your pain and trauma to come into the light so we can hold it. Witness it. Tend to it. Heal it.

No longer neglected in the dark, your pain can finally move out of your system. And in that space, a life of joy and meaning full of the loving relationships you crave can take root.
