In light of the current situation with the Coronavirus, Cara Counselling has taken the decision not to do face-to-face counselling for the duration of the outbreak. This is to help minimise the spread of the virus. However, I am very aware that some people may feel anxious, isolated or alone and may be in need of a listening ear right now, so if anyone wishes to make contact by phone on 083 1855958, I guarantee the call will be answered. Please do not hesitate to contact the Clinic. If the line is busy, leave a message and I will get back to you.
This decision has not been taken lightly, but in the interest of everyone’s safety, it is the correct decision to make. Please be assured that the phone will be answered should you want to get in touch. If we all take heed of the advice being given by the experts, this time of uncertainty and the unknown will pass and things will get back on track. We can all get through it together. Telephone counselling is available, so please be sure to contact me if anyone feels the need of support.
