Counselling Frequently Asked Questions
How does counselling help?
Counselling can help you move forward with whatever your problems are and will give you the time and safe space to work and talk through what is on your mind. Counselling can help you gain a different perspective on the things that are affecting you. Counselling provides a respectful and non-judgemental environment where you will feel secure enough to talk about your inner-most thoughts, difficulties, fears, emotions and vulnerabilities.
Will counselling help me?
When you feel ready to find support from therapeutic counselling, it is important that the right counsellor for you is found. A strong therapeutic relationship is vital for successful outcomes for clients so please take the time to speak to more than one therapist to make sure you feel comfortable working with them. You might be baring your soul to someone you do not know and it is really important to find someone you feel able to be completely open and honest with to get the most from the work you will be doing together.
Are counselling sessions confidential?
Counselling sessions are confidential and a client’s confidentiality will only be broken if there is risk of harm to any child or person and if there is criminal activity including terrorism, extremism or exploitation. Please see my Privacy Policy for more information.
What type of counselling do I need?
This depends on the presenting issues of the person seeking therapy. There are numerous types of counselling such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy which is usually used when someone is trying to break a habit or overcome fears or phobias. Person-centred counselling helps a client to explore their thoughts, feelings and behaviours by allowing the client to direct the therapeutic work. The Psychodynamic approach focuses on the client’s early years to try to understand how childhood events might have impacted on them as adults. Integrative person-centred counselling has a person-centred focus but the therapist draws on other modalities to build an approach that is unique to the client’s needs.
