Caring can be a rewarding experience, but it can also be stressful and difficult. Many carers experience a range of feelings related to their role as a carer. Emotions like anger, depression, anxiety, loneliness, loss and grief are very common.
Your family and friends can provide important support but you may find it helpful to talk with a professional who is not emotionally involved with you or the person you are caring for.
Our carer counselling program can connect you to a qualified professional who understands the problems that carers often face.
You can talk to us by yourself or include your partner and other family members.
Counselling can help you:
