| About Counselling | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Counselling is a confidential relationship that offers a safe place for you to explore difficulties in your life. Such difficulties may arise from an immediate crisis or from a general feeling of lack of meaning and purpose in life. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| The counsellor offers a non-judgemental and caring relationship in which you can explore your feelings and behaviour. By getting to know yourself� better, this can reduce anxiety and ease depression in a deep way. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Counselling can help you to see your difficulties more clearly, increase your insight and objectivity and enable you to make choices about what to do. It enables you to re-find your own resources from within, to approach life and problems in a fresh way. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Counselling takes place regularly (usually weekly) and can be undertaken on a short-term or long-term basis. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
