Counselling and Psychotherapy

What is Counselling and How it works?

Counselling and Psychotherapy are talking therapies where you speak to a professional therapist in a safe, confidential and a non-judgemental environment about your thoughts and emotions. You work collaboratively with your therapist on your goals and the focus during these sessions is completely on you as this is your time.

Therapy can be life changing as it helps you identify difficulties and find the source of contentment and happiness.

We refrain from directing or giving advice and work together to help you process thoughts and feelings enabling you to find your own answers. Confidential and non-judgemental approach will give you the freedom to talk and share anything difficult without fear of being judged, which results in exploration and understanding of feelings as well as meeting goals or working towards desired changes for a healthier life.

We offer individual one to one Counselling and Psychotherapy to people from all walks of life whether you are facing life’s challenges and/or have a mental health condition.

We believe that working with an open, honest and empathic manner will enable you to understand your deeper issues and develop self-awareness and personal growth, helping you live to the fullest. We work with a broad range of issues and work with you to make sense of your historic and present difficulties and emotions.

You are the master of your own situation and working alongside will enable understanding of what you want and make the right choices.

We have a team of experienced Counsellors and Psychotherapists, who will incorporate various psychological approaches to suit your specific needs.
