Sessions provide space in a secure and confidential setting to explore thoughts, feelings, events, relationships, or any issues which may be causing you difficulty, and creating anger, fear, pain or any other emotion. The process is entirely non-judgemental, no agenda is set, and the exploration of any of these may help you to come to terms with what may be causing pain or conflict, and enable you to understand more clearly why and what is happening in your world. Over a period of time, which varies from person to person, you will increasingly be able to make choices and decisions which are more appropriate for you, and enable you to heal some of the areas which have been complex and unclear.
At some point in their lives most people experience distress, acute unhappiness or difficult and stressful situations. These may relate to partnerships, family or to work. Recognizing and identifying some of the underlying issues and working to change these can be helpful and liberating. Having a neutral space as well as time to explore feelings and issues is part of the process. The collaborative relationship between the counsellor and client can frequently contribute to change, and so the choice of counsellor is really important.
