Sometimes life can be tough. A positive attitude and making time to do things you enjoy are often the best solution. But sometimes, It's not enough, and you need help.
Sometimes you want a good listener to help you solve problems. Sometimes you might feel like you have no control in your life, and you need help learning coping
strategies. Sometimes you may need to examine your choices to get at the root of why you are feeling badly. Whatever the reason, remember you are not alone.
Although I include some of my favourite links here, please don't hesitate to come in to the counselling office if you need help.
