Why Reach Out?

Struggling with debt is more common than you think, and getting help early can make all the difference. Some signs to look out for that may mean you could benefit from counselling include:

  • Missing or delaying payments.
  • Relying on credit cards or loans for daily expenses.
  • Using one loan or credit card to pay off another.
  • Feeling stressed about money.
  • Major life events, such as illness, and challenges with mental health.
  • Loss of employment or a sudden change in job status.
  • Reduced income or salary, leaving you with less flexibility in meeting your financial obligations.
