Counselling is a safe environment where confidentiality and boundaries are agreed together, where issues can be explored together to enhance a better quality of life. This is where honesty and trust develops in the therapeutic relationship to explore deep rooted issues that are affecting your life without judgment. I offer empathy and understanding, recognising that we are all individuals experiencing issues differently. This is also a time to reflect and explore new ways of being and new coping mechanisms. The importance of the therapeutic relationship is imperative for change, this supports you to be honest with an issue that is going on in your life and also to be honest with yourself, enabling you to explore choices and change. Counselling can support people of all ages, genders ,race, disability and sexuality and could be the support you need to enable you to have a better quality of life.
