Frequently Asked Questions

What is Psychotherapy & Counselling?

Qualified professional psychotherapists, counsellors are trained to work closely with you to enable you to explore thoughts, beliefs, feelings and behaviours that affect your life negatively. Through counselling and psychotherapy you are given the support and safety to explore, understand and often, to change these thoughts, beliefs, feelings and behaviours. The personal growth that can then take place can free you from the limitations of old patterns. This can allow more realistic and effective ways of improving the quality, contentment and satisfaction of your life to emerge. You can benefit from counselling and psychotherapy at any stage in your life. However, it is more usual that you are likely to consider counselling when you are seeking to deal with changes, events or transitions in your life, or when you are facing a personal crisis.
