Some stress, anxiety and anger isn't always a bad thing; its how we learn to protect ourselves and stems from our primitive flight or fight instincts. However at times it can be  overwhelming, out of control and more destructive than protective. Panic attacks can feel scary and can have a huge physical/emotional affect on our way of being. 

Counselling may help to regulate this state of hyperarousal through self-awareness, ways of coping and self-management.  

Trauma and PTSD can affect our capacity to process. Coping with loss, separation or isolation can be a very lonely place to be and can have a negative affect on our mental health. It can  take on many forms from:  conflict, bereavement, pet loss, divorce, financial, separation, changing environments, employment  friendships....

Counselling may help to process your experiences, become more self-aware and feel less overwhelmed by finding ways to cope and move forward.  

Being a child or young person isn't easy especially when they are trying to 'find there identity and social standing' and parents and carers are often at a loss at what they can do to help.
