Thinking about counselling...?
We offer counselling therapy ('psychodynamic') - which, as a very basic description, tells how the counsellor & client work together in an alliance to gain a deeper & more helpful understanding of how past events & experiences in the client's life (sometimes as far back as infanthood) influence the client's current life... an aim of this is to assist the client in achieving a better quality of life for themselves by resolving past emotional conflicts and difficulties.

Our counselling services for an individual may either be time limited (a set number of sessions usually up to twelve) or open ended (the counselling continues for as long as you and your counsellor agree is necessary). We offer variable cost counselling, which is accessible to all, but we also have a fixed-fee scheme, which offers a more rapid uptake.  The benefits of each can be discussed with you when you come to your first meeting with us (the 'assessment').
