How Counselling & Therapy Can Help
Talking helps. For some people, just the opportunity to talk to someone empathic and supportive is enough to help them
re-engage with their coping strategies.
For others, a more detailed focus on what has happened to them and how to find new meaning might be what is needed.
​
One of the more important factors to effective therapy is the quality of the relationship that develops between client and counsellor so it important to feel comfortable with the therapist you choose.
​
Counselling offers the time and space to work through your personal and relationship issues.
It can help you in many ways to:
​
-
Relieve stress
-
Make sense of your thoughts, feelings and behaviours
-
Explore what matters to you
-
Make wise choices for your well being
-
Build resilience and your capacity to cope with life's challenges
-
Identify your strengths and learn how to develop healthy strategies for managing difficult emotions
