Counselling gives you the opportunity to explore and reflect on issues which you find challenging. These may be ‘positive’ changes in your life which feel big or bring the need for important decisions. They may be difficult or confusing events and changes which you need to process and make sense of. You may simply be feeling ‘stuck’ or trapped and looking for ways to move on. There are many times, experiences and events in our lives - past and present - which feel challenging and you may then feel the personal and emotional impact and notice stress, anxiety, low mood, anger or struggle with confidence and your sense of identity. Counselling supports you to process your feelings and reactions to these issues, make new meanings, find new perspectives and empower you to choose new responses.
