A little more about us.....
Our Practice
Our counsellors help people deal with life’s challenges more effectively. It maybe that you are going through a difficult period in your life and you know what it is you would like to discuss, or it may be that you don't yet know the reason for your distress.
Through improved self-awareness, we can help you explore your issues and support you on your journey to personal acceptance and growth.
Our focus is to help you get in touch with and acknowledge your true self. We do this by providing a safe, confidential, supportive and non-judgemental environment where you will be heard, accepted and understood.
Our Promise to you
'Baring your soul’ to a stranger can be daunting – it takes courage and trust, an aspect of counselling that cannot be emphasised enough is to make sure clients feel safe, at ease and accepted when they enter the counselling room for the first time (Sutton, Stewart 2008).
