If you're interested in accessing counselling with us, then you can give us a call on 0161 330 9223 and ask us about counselling.
Counselling is series of one-to-one sessions between you and your counsellor. It can help you address personal and emotional issues that may be causing you distress.
Counselling offers an opportunity to talk confidentially to someone impartial, so you are free to explore how you feel and be supported, without judgment.
It can help you to understand issues so you can make your own choices, reach your own decisions and to act on them in a way that feels right for you.
This depends on what you want to talk about.
Most people come to us because they are experiencing a problem they want to talk through. Our counsellors won’t force you to talk about something you don’t want.
We’re not here to give you advice, but to help you to look at and understand issues in ways that help you to make your own choices, reach your own decisions and to act on them in a way that feels right for you
Some people feel an immediate sense of relief when they begin counselling.
Other people may initially feel more anxious or distressed when they start because they have to pay attention to difficult feelings that, in some way, they would prefer to ignore. In this situation, they may feel worse before they feel better.
It’s always best to share any concerns you have with the counsellor about how you are reacting to counselling.
