The impact of Cyclone Gabrielle continues to be felt by many in our community. If you or your whānau need mental health support, Weave Hawke’s Bay offers free counselling and wellbeing services to help you process, heal, and move forward.
Maybe you’re feeling anxious, sad, stressed, frustrated, or worried about your tamariki. You may be experiencing different emotions that come and go. These feelings are understandable given the stress of weather events over the past couple of years, and it is perfectly normal to think and feel this way. Talking with someone might help.
Signs you may need support:
- Feelings of nervousness or worry
- Trouble sleeping or having disturbing dreams
- Increased frustration, anger, or sadness
- Increased arguments, or using substances or gambling to cope
- Financial concerns weighing you down
- A desire to be alone or avoiding other people
- A need to be with others constantly, avoiding being alone
- Feelings of hopelessness and tiredness
- Work stress
- Less patience, more irritability
- Worry about your children’s well-being
Our experienced counsellors work with individuals and whānau in Napier, Hastings, Wairoa, and Central Hawke’s Bay. If any of these experiences sound familiar, we invite you to explore whether they may be linked to the impact of past events.
If you, or someone you know, could do with some support, we’re here. Make contact through our counselling enquiry form and we’ll be in touch to match you with the counsellor best suited to your needs.
