Counselling

Counselling is a type of talking therapy that supports a person to talk about their problems and feelings in depth in a confidential and safe environment.

The term counselling is a process people seek when they want to change something in their lives, or simply explore their thoughts and feelings in more depth with professional support.

A counsellor is trained to listen with empathy and compassion. They can help you deal with any negative thoughts and feelings you have.

The aim of counselling is to help you express your feelings, make sense of them and develop new ways of looking at yourself and the world around you.

They will help you to create a plan of action to either help you address your problems, or help you to find ways of coping.

Counselling can be used to help with many different mental health conditions, including:

  • Depression

  • Anxiety

  • Borderline personality disorder (BPD)

  • Trauma

  • Long-term illnesses

  • Low self-esteem

  • Eating disorders, such as anorexia and bulimia

  • Drug and alcohol misuse

  • Bereavement , grief & Loss

  • Relationship breakdown

  • Redundancy or work-related stress

  • Stress

  • Explore issues such as sexual identity

Counselling can also be useful for individuals who are struggling to cope with significant life changes or challenges, such as a new job, the loss of a loved one, or a health diagnosis. By providing a supportive and nonjudgmental environment, counsellors can help individuals understand and work through their emotions, develop new coping skills, and make positive changes in their lives.
