Counselling often has a stigma associated with it, given the history of how mental health issues have been addressed in our society. The reality is, we ALL struggle with life problems - and anyone can benefit from counselling! It's not something that's just for people who are having a really rough time or are in crisis. The human journey is complex and sometimes the support and/or listening ear of a friend or family member is not enough -- the people close to you may not be "objective" or may not have the skills necessary to help you get deep into an issue.
All of us go through difficult times and transitions in our lives. Just because you are struggling in life and seek out the support of a professional counsellor doesn't' mean you are "weak." On the contrary… a willingness to genuinely examine yourself takes a lot of courage.
