Education versus counselling
Education pages can help with reflection, relaxation, coping and preparation for a better conversation. They do not replace a qualified counsellor, psychologist, doctor or crisis service.
Using the AI pathway safely
The AI stress support pathway can help organise thoughts and suggest practical coping ideas. It is not a therapist, diagnostic tool or emergency service.
When to seek qualified care
Seek qualified care if symptoms are severe, persistent, linked with trauma, affecting safety, or interfering with daily life.
