"My mental health and being put back together"

About: St Johns Hospice / St John’s counselling

(as the patient),

My mental health deteriorated when I was looking after my mum with alzheimer's/dementia and felt a failure, I had counselling with Kerry and through each session she put things into perspective for me till I got to a place where I believed I had done everything i could for my mum and got me to start focusing on myself which I hadn't done in a few years. I feel like she literally put me back together and im a stronger version of myself.

There was a time after I had finished my counselling that I felt I was slipping back into my old ways a few months ago but instead of letting it get out of hand I asked for help, a couple of sessions with Kerry made me realise I had already been given the tools to help myself. I honestly don't think I wouldn't be here now if I hadn't asked for help in the 1st place.

Thankyou so much
