Counselling for Carers & Caregivers
Life isn’t always easy. Sometimes, even the strongest people amongst us need a little bit of help to work through some of life’s more challenging problems.
Everyone has battles to fight and hurdles to overcome at some point. Whether you struggle with anxiety, depression, self-esteem, or any other issue, you should know that there is hope for a better tomorrow.
You might be initially hesitant to seek out help and support for personal matters, but when you do, you will feel confident that you are taking a courageous first step towards getting to a better place and being a better you.
Counselling for carers with DisabilityPlus enables caregivers the opportunity to take some time for themselves. It’s a chance to reevaluate and vent with a counsellor who understands exactly what they are going through.
There is no judgement or worries about confidentiality, we understand and will support you.
Counselling for Carers Support?
Our Counselling & Psychotherapies start from the baseline & contributing factors of living as a carer creating the issues you may be feeling.
Carers can face a variety of struggles in their role of providing care and support to another person.
Here are some of the common struggles that we support within our sessions:
Emotional stress: Carers may experience emotional stress due to the responsibility of caring for someone else, as well as the emotional toll of witnessing their loved one’s illness or disability.
Physical strain: Providing care can be physically demanding, especially if the person being cared for has mobility issues or requires assistance with personal care tasks.
Financial strain: Caring for someone else can be expensive, and carers may need to cover the costs of medical care, equipment, and other expenses related to their loved one’s care.
Social isolation: Caring for someone else can be a full-time job, leaving little time for socialising and maintaining relationships with friends and family.
Burnout: Carers may experience burnout if they are unable to take breaks and recharge, leading to exhaustion, frustration, and a lack of motivation to continue providing care.
Guilt and self-doubt: Carers may feel guilty for taking time for themselves or for not being able to provide the level of care they feel their loved one needs.
Lack of support: Carers may feel unsupported by healthcare providers, social services, and other resources, making it difficult to provide the best possible care for their loved ones.

Conditions?
Cerebral palsy is a neurological condition that affects movement, posture, and muscle coordination. While it primarily affects physical functioning, it can also have an impact on mental health. Some of the typical mental health conditions that people with cerebral palsy may experience include:
Anxiety disorders: People with cerebral palsy may experience anxiety related to their physical limitations, social situations, and the challenges of daily life.
Depression: Living with cerebral palsy can be challenging and may lead to feelings of sadness, hopelessness, and loss of interest in activities.
Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD): ADHD is a common co-occurring condition with cerebral palsy, which can make it difficult to concentrate, complete tasks, and stay organised.
Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD): Some people with cerebral palsy may develop OCD, which involves obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviours that are difficult to control.
Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD): People with cerebral palsy may experience traumatic events related to their condition or medical treatments, leading to PTSD.
Sleep disorders: Sleep disturbances are common in people with cerebral palsy and may contribute to other mental health conditions.
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD): Some people with cerebral palsy may also have ASD, which is characterised by social communication difficulties and repetitive behaviours.
It’s important to note that not everyone with cerebral palsy will experience mental health conditions, and those who do may experience different combinations of symptoms.
