Finding balance and strength as a carer
Caring for someone with a life-limiting illness can be a profoundly challenging but rewarding experience. You might find at times that you feel overwhelmed, isolated, and you may struggle to face competing demands between your work and your family. You may also experience a wide range of emotions, including frustration, anxiety, guilt, and grief, as well as joy, contentment, happiness and even neutrality.
As the roles and relationships around you change as time passes, it can cause stress and emotional strain. Our specialist counsellors are here to offer you a safe, supportive space to talk through your experience and how you feel about it and explore coping strategies that work for you and your circumstances.
