Covid-19 (coronavirus)
Free resources and support
The coronavirus pandemic has meant that a lot of us have had to adapt our lives to adjust to what is happening in the world. This is not easy for anyone and the new guidelines on "social (physical) distancing" can lead to a sense of loneliness and isolation or increased feelings of anxiety. These feelings are completely normal and understandable, given the current sense of uncertainty that surrounds our lives.
Now, perhaps more than ever, it is really important to look after ourselves and each other to get through this difficult time together. I have shared some tips in my latest blog post, which you can access by clicking here.
I am currently offering sessions by telephone or online (using Zoom or Skype) at a discounted rate. If you would like to discuss this further, please get in touch via email (click here to visit my contact page).
I have also gathered some resources from third parties available at the links below, which might help you navigate the current situation. Please feel free to share these with friends and family if it feels helpful.
