The Christmas period and Covid has increased many women's feelings of overwhelm, anxiety and stress.

Are you finding yourself emotionally exhausted or tired of juggling it all?

I believe that it’s okay to ask for help.

In fact, I think it’s a privilege to hear your story––it takes courage to share.

Take the time and allow yourself the space to be heard.

I'm Lisa, a professional counsellor based at Manuka. Don't let restrictions stop you from seeking support - there are many options. *Start today*
