Details
Steve's
parents have recently divorced. Steve is surprised
how hard the divorce has hit him, especially
now that he is not in contact with his father.
Steve feels unable to contact him as it was
his actions that led to the marriage break-up.
Steve was close to his father and it was him
who encouraged Steve to take up law.
Steve has always been used to a settled home
life. Yes, his parents argued but no more
than other parents. It seems they decided
to divorce when he came to university. Steve
has been unable to discuss these matters with
his friends and has been drinking heavily,
sometimes on his own, to suppress his own
anxious and guilty feelings.
Options

to talk through the situation confientially.
To contact his GP if he continues to be worried
about his alcohol use.
