Counselling is a process that uses the safety of a special kind of relationship to enable people to reach more of their own personal resources to deal with life. Counselling helps people take charge of their lives and honestly work through areas that cause distress or control us. Everyone holds an ability to become more self aware and to find solutions to their own problems. However there are times when we need support to achieve this.
By working with individuals in a supportive way, together we can create a unique opportunity to move towards a more fulfilling life. Counselling offers a way for you to look at and work through your issues. Counselling creates a safe space to explore difficult emotions and experiences so you can re-imagine your life and future in more fulfilling ways.
It can be challenging to let go of old behaviours, patterns and ways of thinking. Counselling offers a space that is non-threatening and non-judgemental way you'll be valued and given space to find new ways of living counselling is not about being told how to live counselling is about choosing to enter into a process that is aimed at helping you to get the most from life being free from emotional pain and learn to live the best life you can with what you have.
