• Help managing uncertainty, confidence loss, and pressure

Outcome

Identity Changes

Who this helps
People feeling “lost,” disconnected, or unsure of who they are as roles change — especially in mid-life or later life.

What you offer

• Guided conversations to explore values, purpose, and strengths

• Support redefining identity beyond work, productivity, or status

• Space to reflect on life experience and what still matters

• Help building meaning and self-respect in a new phase of life

Outcome
Clients develop a stronger sense of self and purpose, grounded in life experience rather than external roles.

Relationship Strain

Individuals experiencing tension with partners, family, friends, or work relationships — often linked to life transitions.

What you offer

• Support to understand emotional patterns and triggers

• Help improving communication and boundary-setting

• Space to talk openly without judgement

• Guidance navigating change without escalating conflict

Retirement Anxiety

Who this helps
People approaching or entering retirement who feel anxious, uncertain, or unprepared emotionally.

What you offer

• Support adjusting to new rhythms of life

• Help planning a meaningful post-work life

• Space to explore identity, relationships, and wellbeing after work

Outcome
Clients move from anxiety and uncertainty toward acceptance, structure, and a sense of meaning in retirement.

How Your Service Is Different

• Life-experience-based, not textbook driven

• Calm, grounded, and practical

• Ethical, non-clinical, and supportive

• Focused on real conversations, not quick fixes

You are not diagnosing or treating mental illness — you are offering structured, professional life-transition support informed by counselling training and lived experience.
