Counselling and Psychotherapy

Service Description

It takes courage to take the step to start counselling. You may have considered it many times and may feel like now it is the the right time for you, you may have lots of questions, what’s it going to be like, will I like the counsellor, will I have to talk about the past, how long is it going to take? I just want to reassure you that every person’s journey is different and will be unique to you. I have also been where you are now and understand what you may be going through. Well done for taking this step. I am a fully trained Counsellor and I work using Psychotherapy also incorporating, CBT, Coaching and Transactional Analysis. Psychotherapy helps to get an understanding of the past. CBT works on aligning your thoughts with how you want to be. Coaching focuses you towards where you want to go.
