A financial counselling crisis has left vulnerable owners exposed, ‘shame’ is the one emotion shared widely between those in financial distress. 

If help is not available, the shame then turns into fear and anxiety which is becoming the case for an increasing number of Australians. 

Financial Counsellor Kate Rich has said it is upsetting to know that people are trying so hard to get in to see a financial counsellor after recent comments were posted anonymously to financial counselling agencies in Western Australia.
