How can Counselling help?

Many of us reach times in our lives when problems prove difficult to sort out alone. Life can throw many things at us that produce such a huge shock to our sense of peace and security that we struggle to get over or come to terms with them. You may be dealing with a particular loss, crisis or life transition, struggling to cope with relationship difficulties, or experiencing general feelings of perhaps unhappiness, discontent or confusion.

Counselling offers an opportunity for you to explore your thoughts and feelings in a safe, confidential setting, with someone who is trained neither to judge nor advise. The overall aim of counselling is to provide an opportunity for you to work towards living in a way you find more satisfying and resourceful. The objectives of each particular counselling relationships will vary according to each individual's needs.

The relationship that develops between us is an important part of the process. Together we will work in a way that will best help you find and use your own inner strengths. In so doing, you may then be more able to make the choices and changes necessary to live and create a more satisfying life with meaningful and fulfilling relationships with others. I see my role as helping my clients to help themselves as I support them on their journey.
