Stress

Do you feel you have too much to do and not enough time to do it? Do you feel overwhelmed by life yet unable to do enough to keep the fear of failing at bay?

Intolerable stress is corrosive and UNNECESSARY. True, it is not possible to live a life without any stress. That is not the point! It is however possible to manage, overcome and defeat the intolerable stress that destroys your wellbeing.

Depression

If you’re suffering with depression you’ll already know that depression is a recurring and pernicious problem that devastates lives.

It can leave you feeling tired and drained, sad, numb, detached, generally low and hopeless.

What you need to know though is that each individual’s experience of depression is unique and each journey to wellness is also unique. Hence, you are the best expert on your problems. This is why self help is an obvious choice for a successful depression treatment plan.

 Anxiety Problems

Are you struggling with anxiety? Acute anxiety disorders and general anxiety problems are very common but that doesn’t make them any less debilitating.

If you have an anxiety problem you can feel jumpy and irritable, find it hard to concentrate, you can be totally consumed with feelings of dread. And often that’s not where it ends.

Anxiety can have physical symptoms. Have you ever felt like you couldn’t breathe, your heart was pounding, you were dizzy, had diarrhea  tremors or the twitches? Perhaps you couldn’t stop sweating.

Anxiety disorders capture a considerable range of different presentations but the underlying issues remain feelings of fear, worry and threat.

Fear spoils many of life‘s joys. It can be like a closing trap getting ever tighter, strangling. But it does not have to be this way.

I want you to know that it is truly possible to put an end to worry, stress, low mood and to recover from depression and anxiety. You just have to know how…  and learning how does not have to mean potentially costly help from a therapist.

 Overcoming mental health problems

I know this because I am a psychologist and CBT therapist and I’ve been in practice for 18 years. That’s 18 years of helping people just like you to live happier, fulfilled lives.

My clinic is based in Berkshire, England and over the years I’ve provided anxiety and depression treatments to hundreds of patients sharing my Active Self Help for depression and anxiety approach… but I wanted to help a greater number of people; people all over the world, like you who maybe struggling with mental health problems.

You actually have within you all the self healing ability you need to overcome your psychological problems. You just might not know how to use it… yet.
