Counselling helps you look at difficulties and problems that you may be experiencing in life. Counselling provides a supportive and non-judgmental environment where you can explore your personal circumstances in confidence with your counsellor.
Maybe you are feeling anxious or depressed following an illness or specific event such as a bereavement, redundancy or relationship breakdown. You may have already decided to make some changes in your life but are not sure how or where to begin. In these circumstances, talking to someone who is outside your social circle may help. Counselling can provide a caring and supportive environment for you to talk privately about any of your concerns.
Sharing your thoughts and feelings in the context of a therapeutic relationship will help you feel less isolated, and will enable you to more clearly understand what is happening now, and how you would like things to change.
