How does counselling work?
First and foremost, counselling works by giving you the chance to be heard. Your counsellor will give you time to talk, sob, shout or just think. It’s an opportunity to look at the problem in a different way with someone who’ll respect and value you as a person. Counselling will give you time and space, just for you, providing the opportunity to work towards living in a way you find more satisfying and resourceful. Although it’s hard to measure exactly how effective counselling is, it’s a profession that’s rapidly growing as more and more people discover the benefits for themselves.
