Counselling

What is Counselling? Counselling is a process that takes place in planned, regular sessions which last for around 50 minutes and provides a safe and confidential space for you to talk to our counsellors about the issues and concerns you need help with.  

Counselling can help you to address your problems by clarifying the issues involved and, explore options and strategies to manage and cope in a more helpful way. For some, just the process of telling their story to a counsellor, and being listened to, is helpful.

What can Counselling help me with?

  • Relationships

  • Childhood (not including childhood sexual abuse)

  • Past and present life events/stressors

  • Situations you find difficult

  • Realise ambitions and potential

  • Be happier or less stressed

  • Anxiety, Stress & Fears

  • Become more peaceful, sociable or fun

  • Depression/ Low Mood / Adjustment to Loss or Change

Your Counsellor: Will be impartial but understanding. They will listen to you without judgment and help you explore your thoughts and emotions. They may offer information, but they won’t tell you what you should think or do. They will help you find your own solutions. 

How often?: How often you see your counsellor and how many appointments you have will depend on the agreed focus of the work, and will be agreed between you and your therapist.

Where?: Counselling can be offered either in person (face to face) or remotely (video)

Prices: Counselling Subsidised, Counselling Private, see more about prices on our FAQ page.
