How can counselling help me?
Counselling and/or therapy can help alleviate emotional pain and suffering. It can help you develop new skills to deal with concerns, difficulties and problems. Counselling helps to increase self-esteem and gives hope about alternatives in life. You make the decision to change by practicing the skills and new ideas.
Counselling helps you take time out from your situation and see it from a fresh perspective. Working with a counsellor gives you, or you and your partner, or even you whole family, a chance to think about what you can do to change your situation for the better. It can also give you a chance to explore complex or difficult issues in a safe and confidential environment. Counselling is not just a matter of trying to fix problems – it can also help you develop your relationship in new ways.
