About Counselling

..…. Counselling is where one person meets the other in a one to one relationship in trust so that the client can feel comfortable in talking about their problems without being judged.

…... Everyone is unique with their own way of seeing the world and the client is always in control of what they want to share in the sessions.

…... Counselling gives the opportunity to make changes to your life, helps to let go of old belief systems about yourself, brings hidden parts of you into awareness and gives hope.

…... As well as looking at why we do things from the past, counselling helps us move forward, finding solutions to problems and having a go at doings things differently.

... I work in a Humanistic way, with a focus on the relationship. As an Integrative Counsellor, I draw on a number of modalities to help clients explore any issues.

The BACP (British Association of Councillors and Psychotherapists) describe counselling as

“Counselling and Psychotherapy are umbrella terms which cover a range of talking therapies. They are delivered by trained practitioners who work with people over a short or long term to help them bring about effective change or enhance their wellbeing”
