About Counselling

Counselling is a provision of professional assistance and guidance in resolving personal or provisional problems. It is a talk therapy which allows people to discuss their problems and difficult feelings that one encounters in a safe and confidential environment. It is a process people seek when they want to change something in their lives, or simply explore their thoughts and feeling more in depth.

A counsellor is not there to set you down and tell you what to do, instead they will encourage you to talk about what is bothering you in order to uncover any root causes and identify specific ways of thinking. The counsellor may then look to create a plan of action to help or reconcile your issues, or help you to find ways of coping.

Counselling is tailored according to the individuals needs. There is flexibility within therapy that allows for variety of ways to access the service.

Who can go for counselling?

Counselling can be useful for anyone who wants to explore the ways they are thinking or feeling further, as well as for anyone experiencing a problem or an issue they are keen to resolve. People may meet a counsellor because they feel they cannot speak to others like friends, family, opposite gender etc, or any personal issues, career planning or simply wish to speak to a professional with an objective viewpoint.

How Counselling can help?

The way counselling can help will depend on the person receiving the treatment. For many, the fact that counselling offers a safe and confidential environment to speak is all it takes. In life what we say to others can sometimes have a knock-on effect, altering relationships and the way people see each other. Counselling eliminates this problem and offers you the space and freedom to explore your own thoughts with an unbiased party. In many cases a single session will not be enough to help overcome any issues. Counselling is a journey and it takes time and consistency to work effectively and for this it may require that one goes for regular sessions.
