Counselling

At different times in our lives we might find that we need support from someone who can help us through the difficulties which we all face. Talking to someone who is separate and independent from your life and who is specifically trained and experienced can be very beneficial. We tend to avoid our problems and the emotions that accompany them and often turn to other distractions that may make us feel better for a while. Rather than suppressing these difficulties counselling allows us to face them, understand them and take decisions and actions to change them.

• Offers you a safe space to explore and find understanding and clarity in your thoughts, feelings, ideas and behaviours
• Provides you with a real and open relationship with your counsellor
• Allows you to speak privately and in confidence
• Respects your individuality and uniqueness
• Promotes an equal relationship between client and counsellor
• Focuses on potential in each individual to facilitate change in a self directing way
• Recognises that YOU are the expert on your own life

What Can Counselling help with?

Counselling may be helpful if you are experiencing concerns regarding yourself, your feelings, thoughts, behaviours and relationships and where there is a desire for change in your life.
