Why Counsellin?
Sometimes you may feel unable to cope, depressed, anxious, alone or generally challenged by life. Things from the past, difficultes in the present, worries about the future, may stop you enjoying life or achieving what you want.
Counselling is a process helping you to make sense of thoughts and feelings. It can help you to make informed decisions about what you can do to bring about changes that you would like in your life.
Sharing your difficulties with someone uninvolved in the rest of your life can help to create a safe space to explore your problems, helping you to understand how your life experiences and current behaviour may be linked.
What sort of problems can I talk about?
The most important thing is to talk about what is bothering you. Even when you don't quite know what is wrong, Your counsellor will listen carefully, focus on you and how you feel about your difficulties. She can help you to begin to see how you can make the changes that you want in your life.
Common problems brought to Counselling include:
Loss, bereavement, life changes, depression, relationship difficulties, anxiety, stress, sexuality, abuse, anger and frustration... Feelings of inadaquacy and despair, coping with illness and Bullying & Harassment....
Shouldn't I be able to cope on my own?
Often we grow up believing that we should cope on our own. That we should handle things ourselves, but sharing your feelings can often help your relationships and your sense of well being.
If I need counselling. Does that mean I'm mentally ill?
Not at all. Seeking help is a sign of strength. Talking now may help prevent your difficulties escalating. Sometimes emotional pain can be manifested as physical symptons such as headaches, panic attacks and other pains. Once feelings are heard and the root cause unearthed the physical symptoms often disappear.
