A 2008 report published by Mind states that, for some people, mental health problems are a pathway to debt; for others debt is a pathway to mental health problems. Yet, continues the report, health professionals are failing to engage with the issue. At Counseling Madrid we work with a wide variety of clients ranging, according to their levels of income, from well paid executives and embassy employees to unemployed professionals and foreign students without a job. Although we do not provide Debt related Counselling services we do recognize the impact the current financial crises and rising unemployment can have on our clients mental health. Therefore we would like to mention several links on the internet that can help you inform yourself about what to do when you are facing debt issues.
