ABOUT COUNSELLING

Counselling is a type of talking therapy that allows a person to talk about their problems and feelings in a confidential and dependable environment.

A counsellor is trained to listen with empathy (by putting themselves in your shoes). They can help you deal with any negative thoughts and feelings you have.

TESTIMONIALS

"I would recommend this help to all. It has given me more freedom in life and I am now in control and don’t have to have bad feelings about anything any more. Life is better than it has ever been. It is also helping my family as I am calmer with them. Thank you. Bless you."

Justin Russell

 

"After my first conversation with Su, I instinctively knew that his approach would help me. By helping me to understand my behaviour and giving me the answers and guidance that I needed, Su has helped clear my mind and move forward. Most importantly (for me) Su has given me the confidence to realise that I have great qualities and I’m actually quite proud of what I have achieved."
