About Counselling
-
Counselling is offered by trained relationship professionals.
-
It's for people who want to make life changes.
-
The counsellor encourages personal responsibility - if you want to have a loving family and couple relationship, you need to be prepared to make the changes in your own behaviour first to bring this about.
-
A positive attitude can enhance possible changes in the relationship.
-
Change can only take place in small steps.
-
Counselling is not an instant cure, but takes some time.
Your Counsellor will offer you:
-
A safe, containing, confidential, non-judgmental, unbiased, empathic space where you will be heard.
-
Preferably seeing relevant members together so that all can work to resolve issues.
-
The focus will be on interaction in the present and exploring together how the past has an impact on the current situation.
-
The counsellor will facilitate positive change by focusing on strengths and resources.
-
Your counsellor will, together with you, clarify the goals of counselling and how this is approached.
-
Your counsellor will give you feedback about how you are doing.
