What kind of issues can be discussed?
Counselling tends to deal with the way we respond to experiences in the present that are impacting on our lives in a negative way. Many of the diverse range of negative thoughts and feelings that continue to cause us difficulties have common roots in earlier events in our lives and the way we continue to view them. By taking time to revisit these experiences in a safe and supportive environment, we can begin to manage our feelings more effectively and start to choose how we respond to the world around us.
Counselling has proven to be effective for people with a wide range of unwanted thoughts and feelings that affect their behaviour. These include anxiety and depression, fears and phobias, compulsions and addictions. This could be the result of a single incident, such as a traumatic event, or a period of negative experiences, for example long-term abuse or neglect. Counselling can help people to overcome their negative experiences and reconnect with what is important to them so that they can live more fully in the present.
