Relationships come first among the people who book through our Ryde practice, a suburb away from West Ryde. About a third of them are couples, or individuals working through relationship strain, and anxiety and stress are almost level with that. Low mood is close behind at roughly three in ten, and one in four people call about an addiction of some kind. Smaller numbers come for anger or for past trauma, and some parents call about a child or teenager. Whatever brings you, it has almost certainly brought someone before you.
