COUNSELLING
To finally say what you have been thinking to someone who is truly listening can be incredibly rewarding. Counselling is a safe non-judgemental space where everything discussed is confidential. Using a strength based, person centred approach your counsellor will support you to explore your experience of yourself and your world then find your own strategies to respond differently to the challenges. You have a unique story. Everything that has happened to you and all the choices you have made have led you to where you are today.
​
Our Psychotherapists are specialist trained in counselling young people and adults who have experienced acute, chronic or complex trauma. We also support couples to strengthen their understanding about each other’s trauma triggers and explore ways to better support one another so you can grow together.
