What is Counselling?

Anala’s counselling services provide a safe, supportive space for individuals to explore their thoughts, feelings, and experiences with a qualified mental health professional. Whether you’re managing the impacts of trauma, living with a mental health condition, or just need someone to talk to—our counsellors are here to support you.

Using evidence-based approaches and a person-centred lens, we help individuals build emotional resilience, develop coping strategies, and move towards their personal goals. Sessions are tailored to each person’s needs and can evolve over time as new challenges or goals emerge.
