What is counselling?

 

Counselling is a talking therapy in a safe and non-judgmental space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings from the past or present day in a supportive professional environment.

​

​

Your reasons for coming to counselling:

 

There are many different reasons why people make the decision to see a counsellor/psychotherapist such as:

 

• Feeling low or depressed

 

• Relationship difficulties intimate and/or professional

 

• Work related issues such as stress and performance anxiety

 

• Feeling like anxiety is preventing you living the life you want to live

 

• Addictions such as alcohol, work or sex

 

• Intrusive and unpleasant thoughts or compulsive patterns of behaviour

​

• Beareavement issues and loss

 

• Unresolved childhood issues that are impacting on your life today

​

• Managing difficult feelings such as anger

 

• Difficulties with making decisions creating inner turmoil, making you feel stuck or frustrated or disempowerered

​

What to expect from counselling:

​​​

• Sessions will always last for 50 minutes

• The first session will clarify whether we think/feel we can work together

• All work is confidential unless this is legally not possible (for example court orders, child protection issues and risk of harm to self and others).

• Therapy can be short term or long term and you can also take a break and return to therapy at a later time
