Counselling is the process of respectful listening, problem solving, defining goals, discovering strengths and resources and learning to manage emotions or challenges.
Issues may be:
- coping with the loss of a loved one or a relationship
- depression
- stress
- anxiety or worries
- change of job, health or living situation
- confused thinking
- difficulty making decisions
- building self-esteem
- personal development
- spirituality
Family Therapy is counselling for families or individuals which gives each family member the opportunity to help identify what’s working and what’s not and to try out new solutions.
Some common situations may be:
- differing parenting styles and expectations,
- parenting styles that aren’t working anymore
- conflict between parents and teenagers,
- tricky behaviour – either children or teens
- risky or challenging child or teenage behaviour,
- difficulties communicating – “she doesn’t understand me”, “he doesn’t listen”
- life challenges affecting family members – illness, finances, changes, losses
- anger management
It’s always wise to get support early. If you’re thinking of coming for counselling or family therapy give me a call or email about what you want to achieve. Contact details are given below.
