If you find life or your problems a bit daunting or overwhelming, and do not know what to do, I suggest you ask your general practitioner for guidance and support. Tell your doctor what's troubling you, and can he suggest a good counsellor or psychologist, or be guided by his advice.

A counsellor's goal is to create well-being and harmony in your life. A counselling session is made up of sessions that are person-centered. By that I mean the counsellor is focused on your concerns for the entire session, face-to-face. You have the counsellor's total attention and commitment to you right from the start of the sessions. Sessions are confidential and you are not judged by the counsellor for anything you say. 

People also need goals to create an enjoyable existence in their lives. Without goals or being able to achieve them life can be boring.

It is normal to have dreams and goals we aim for in life.

Attaining them is important. We feel as if we have achieved something achievable and exciting.

Counsellors do not give advice; they empower clients to take charge of their own lives. The client is the expert in their own life. You know what's going on the counsellor doesn't. You have come to the counsellor with a problem you want to talk about. The counsellor listens, making sure that they understand fully your problem or situation then guides you and your family or just you individually with questions to attain how they can best help you. 
 

Have you been stressed but cannot understand why?  

Have had a fight that keeps happening and it is causing you or both of you stress and it is upsetting.

Counsellors are trained to acknowledge your feelings, and emotions and are happy to talk to you about them. They dedicate their complete time to you in the sessions and are often available throughout the week, if a situation you have trouble with should arise.

The counsellor can assist you in any number of ways.

                           Counselling services are supportive, sustainable, and caring.

The sessions will provide you with a learning experience- a way to look at problems or concerns from an unfamiliar perspective. 

This counselling service focuses on humanistic and behavioral theories and techniques of counselling. These theories have been used for years and have been proven to work well giving clients the best care possible. If for any reason a counsellor is not the best person for you, a transfer to another allied health specialist or counselling service, or your local GP can be arranged.

A counsellor has a genuine interest in the person sitting in front of them, or talking online with them in a remote environment, such as in an office.

Are you feeling down in the dumps?

You don't know what's wrong. Talking to a trained professional such as a counsellor can be of assistance.

Counselling sessions are confidential by law. 

Your privacy is important?

If you need to talk to somebody about a situation which is of a concern to you, counseling sessions will assist you to build your confidence and you may not be as passive and accept negative abuse, as you once did. You'll learn ways of dealing with stress and aggression.

Being able to speak up for our self in life is a positive attribute. There is a difference though, between speaking nastily and assertive. If this is a problem for you, with the guidance of a counsellor, it is something you can overcome.

If you need to talk to a counselor, please fill out the form on the home page by clicking on the three lines located at the top of the page, and a counsellor will return your call within 24 hours.
