It is part of the normal human experience to periodically feel challenged and even overwhelmed by everyday stressors, or the more specific problems we may encounter. Often our own internal resources, combined with the support of friends and family, is sufficient to help us prevail and overcome. However, at other times, we may feel inadequate and depleted.
This is when the services of a psychologist can be very beneficial. As a specialist in human behaviour, thoughts and emotions, a psychologist can assist you with life difficulties and mental health conditions. A psychologist can provide support, guidance, education, strategies and skills to reduce emotional distress and help you manage difficulties more effectively. They can also help you to reconnect with your strengths and inner resources to promote future resilience and wellbeing.
