help and support

If you’re struggling right now, here are services that can support you straight away.

At The Therapy Nest, I aim to provide a safe and supportive space for you to explore what you’re going through. However, I am not currently able to be an emergency service and I may not always be able to respond straight away.

If you are in crisis, feeling unable to keep yourself safe, or need urgent support, please reach out to one of the following services at the links below:
