How can psychotherapy help you?

If you are aware that you have a negative mental state or process, and if it is persistent, or if you feel stressed, have a low level of liveliness, difficulties in your relationships, traumas, anxiety or depression.

Psychological therapy can help you with these feelings, to resolve and change your behaviour patters which could contribute to your symptoms. Also could help with a variety of difficulties arising as a result of anxiety, difficulties in sleeping, relationships and trauma.
