Counselling is a wider form of consultation than purely advice. The aim of counselling is to establish a process through which the counsellor helps you to:<\/p>

  • Express your true feelings<\/li>
  • Understand your situation more objectively<\/li>
  • Break negative patterns of behaviour often learned from others in your past as well as the present<\/li>
  • Change negative behavioural attitudes, patterns and cycles<\/li>
  • Make better informed decisions from the choices available to you<\/li>
  • Build confidence, self-awareness and self-esteem.<\/li><\/ul>

    The counsellor uses active listening, reflective questioning and other therapeutic interventions and tools to deliver an effective counselling service based on their training and experience with other clients.<\/p>

    The relationship between counsellor and client must be based on trust, empathy and respect. A counsellor is trained to listen not to judge or blame which brings a great sense of relief to clients who are seeking answers and resolution. Counselling helps to establish a better way of relating to yourself and others.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
