What is counselling?

Counselling is a space and time where life problems can be explored in a confidential, supportive and empathic way.

…an opportunity to regain your zest for life…

Counselling can be a chance to offload; a space to get a different perspective; time to find that strength you might have lost or a place to make choices and decisions with support from someone alongside you. Counselling is not about giving advice or making judgements but about giving time and space for reflection and exploration to validate and make sense of your feelings and experiences.

Beginnings

I offer an initial session at a reduced rate for you to hear how I work, to begin talking about what is troubling you, to ask any questions, and to begin to explore how we might work together.

Endings

Clients are free to end their counselling with me at any stage, however, planned endings are usually more helpful and I suggest that clients give some notice of an intended ending wherever possible, so you can achieve satisfactory closure around issues you may have been working on.
