If you are struggling and unable to get help from your usual support network, please consider contacting one of the agencies below.  

I cannot provide an emergency service, so I ask clients not to contact me in the event of a crisis as I cannot guarantee to be available, and any messages left by text, email or voicemail may not be seen for some time, if I am away from the office or on holiday….
