You help everyone

If you’re a nurse, you probably don’t even realize how much you carry. 

Every day, you manage medications, respond to emergencies, interpret lab results, chart endlessly…

But you also hold hands through grief. You witness trauma. You soothe families in chaos.

You’re the first to respond. The last to leave. And often the one holding it all together. But who helps you?

You give more than anyone sees. It’s rewarding – but also exhausting, emotionally draining and physically demanding. 

Being a nurse is more than a job—it’s a calling. You manage medications, respond to alarms, communicate with physicians, coordinate discharges, interpret lab results, and chart everything.

You comfort families during crisis. You hold hands when someone takes their last breath.

 

And that compassion? It comes at a cost.

 You are, in so many ways, the emotional anchor of the system.

Nursing is a profession of unmatched skill and deep empathy.

And that’s precisely why it’s also one of the most emotionally demanding careers in existence.

The Hidden Stress of being a Nurse

Most nurses don’t think twice about their stress. It’s just part of the job, right?

The long shifts. The back-to-back codes. The staffing shortages. The fear of making a mistake.

But *normal* doesn’t mean *healthy*.

So many nurses also experience:

– Burnout

– Compassion fatigue

Anxiety & depression

– Sleep disturbances

– PTSD

– Substance misuse

That’s where counselling comes in.

Counselling isn’t about fixing you. You’re not the problem.

It’s a space to exhale. A room to process. A moment to be the one cared for.

To talk about the code blues that haunt you. The grief you’ve absorbed. The relationships that feel strained.

All in total confidence.

To come back to center. To reconnect with your purpose.


"But I Don’t Have Time !"

I don’t have time.

But what if one session a month helped you sleep better, feel calmer, stop snapping at the people you love?

Counselling for nurses has flexible options: early mornings, evenings, even video calls from home.

Just like you prioritize safety rounds or PPE checks… this is part of staying safe, too.

Signs You Might Need Support

Ask yourself:

– Have I been feeling numb, irritable, or overwhelmed?

– Do I dread my next shift?

– Am I drinking more just to unwind?

– Do I feel disconnected from my family… or myself?”

If even one of these hits home, counselling could help more than you think.
