A mental health counsellor specialising in wellbeing is invaluable for your care team as there are complex emotional and psychological challenges associated with the condition. Parkinson’s impacts mental health, often leading to feelings of anxiety, depression, frustration, and uncertainty about the future. A counsellor provides a safe and supportive environment to address these emotions, offering coping strategies, stress management techniques, and tools for enhancing resilience. They help you navigate the emotional impact of PD, adjust to changes in lifestyle and relationships, and develop strategies for maintaining a positive outlook and quality of life. By focusing on mental wellbeing, counsellors play a crucial role in empowering you to effectively manage your emotional health, enhance your overall well-being, and cultivate a sense of control and purpose in your life despite the challenges.
