Therapy can be to inspire change or improve quality of life.
If an issue is causing distress or interfering with everyday living, it may be time to consider therapy. Therapy can help you in exploring your own difficulties, feelings, beliefs, and behaviour, allowing you to become more self-aware and independent. When you attend therapy sessions, you will be encouraged to bring your own difficulties to the session; the counselling is guided by you, as you are the expert of your own life.
I will not judge you, irrespective of what you bring to the session. This helps foster the growth of a relationship of confidence in which you feel free and supported to discuss anything that is bothering you. Eventually, you will discover your own abilities and autonomy, allowing you to deal with current and future challenges.
During our first session together we will discuss your specific needs.
Children
Offering children counselling can be a valuable and impactful way to support their emotional and mental well-being. To provide effective counselling to children, it is important to create a safe and nurturing environment where they feel comfortable expressing their thoughts and emotions. Building a strong rapport and trust with the child is crucial in ensuring that they feel heard and understood. It is essential to use age-appropriate language and techniques when communicating with children, as well as utilising creative and expressive methods. Additionally, involving parents or carers in the counselling process can help provide a holistic approach and support the child's ongoing growth and development. Overall, offering children counselling requires empathy, patience, and a deep understanding of their unique needs and experiences.
