Our Logo is both significant to us as well as our clients.  Innovation is to “bring something new to an environment” and our shell represents the hermit crab’s home.  As the hermit crab grows, the current ‘home’ can become too small and cramped. The crab must move to a bigger shell. 

Sometimes the pressures of life require us to stretch our perspectives in order to fit the new situations we face and new directions will need to be found in order for us to face a future for which we might never have been prepared.  We may not necessarily leave our situation but may need to find new ways of dealing with the pressures and solving the personal problems we face.

Psychologists and counsellors can help you to negotiate this change process so you can establish a new, more satisfying life.  Things change and we have to adapt. Psychologists and counsellors help in the management of solutions and change through life’s challenges.

Emotions can be intense so that feelings of stress, anxiety, anger and depression as well as grief can overwhelm us and we will need to manage these experiences.  New personal skills might be needed in order for us to fit with new circumstances and sometimes a broader psychological assessment may also be required in order to see the way ahead.

Self-esteem can be badly affected at times and we may also need to consult about relationship problems, addictions,  self-harming thoughts and behaviours along with other issues around mental health such as bullying. Sexual and physical abuse, traumatic stress, labile emotions, conduct and social problems can also affect us and those with whom we are close. Learning problems can also affect our children and many adults. Dealing with all these things is part of our work.
