What is Counselling?
Professional counselling is a safe and confidential collaboration between a qualified counsellor and client, designed to support mental health, emotional wellbeing and self-understanding.
Counselling gives people space to explore concerns, experiences, relationships, emotions and patterns that may be affecting daily life. It is an active process, with clients participating at every stage and working with their counsellor to better understand what is happening and what may need to change.
Counselling may be short-term, long-term or ongoing, depending on the person’s needs. It can support children, young people, adults, couples, families and groups across a wide range of life experiences and concerns.

Grief, loss and major life changes

Identity, self-esteem and self-understanding
Past experiences affecting the present
