What Is Counselling?

Counselling can help with many things that can cause you difficulty.  Just a few of the major issues that can be addressed include -Counselling is a ‘talking therapy’  – a time and a place where you can discuss whatever is causing you concern in a safe and conf1dential environment.  It can take place face to face, and I have facilities to see clients that way in South Cumbria, but for those clients that are unable to attend it can be done remotely over the telephone, or online, using a video meeting service such as Zoom.  Often the process can be difficult and challenging, as feelings such as hoplessness, helplessness, powerlessness, shame, lonliness and isolation have to be faced and dealt with.  Generally the aim is to enable you to invoke change in your life in order to better manage and deal with whatever is the cause of your distress.

What does a Counsellor Do?

A counsellor is not there to tell you what to do.  With their encouragement and support you will be talking about what is causing you distress, considering what the origins and causes of this are, and looking at the beliefs you hold about it and the ways you are thinking about it.  The counsellor will enable and empower you to find your own solutions to these issues.  These solutions will be things that you feel you are capable of doing, either by yourself or with the support from others in your life.
