Why counselling?
Counselling is to support you to move forwards effectively so you can live a more meaningful and hopefully satisfying life.
Many people report they feel a sense of great relief even after the first session, simply because they have found a place where they feel free to talk openly with someone.
In some cases having someone who is prepared to listen can be beneficial in itself. In others it can be helpful to have a trained professional help guide you through various matters, focus on your own personal developments and have better understanding in how you have been impacted.
What’s counselling like?
Counselling, and having a counsellor-client relationship is different to any other relationship. In most relationships tend to be 50/50 of giving and receiving from one another. A good counsellor, however, is there for you 100%. That for your entire session is there listening intently, helping you navigate through what you may be facing.
How long will it take?
In response to the question about how long counselling can take, can be some what be the same as asking how long a piece of string is. This is because there are many factors that need to be considered into each individuals journey. Some factors could be what kind of issue it is, how long the person has been living with is and most importantly how much commitment you can give on an agreed action plan outside of the sessions.
Why is counselling expensive?
Counsellors have to have on going professional development, professional supervision and membership of a professional governing body to which they are accountable. All these things add up and often make counselling more expensive.
