Relationship Issue
Akash has been lately taking more and more time off work, saying – “He was unwell”. One of his colleagues noticed that he is unable to perform up to his true potential. He suggested that he call the EWAP helpline.
Akash was initially hesitant to reveal what was troubling him. After his counsellor reassured him of confidentiality, non-judgemental way of therapy, he started expressing himself. In the initial session, Akash revealed that he is having difficulties concentrating at work, meeting his deadlines which was leading to an avoidance behaviour towards his workplace. He also reported that he is having trouble getting sound sleep following his daily routine and has lost interest in activities he used to enjoy earlier.
After probing a bit more about his concerns, it was discovered that Akash is facing difficulty in his relationship with his partner.
