Individual Counselling

A space for you to talk in confidence and better understand your situation.

A space for you to talk in confidence and better understand your situation.

We’re here to provide one-to-one help that gets you where you need to be.

The therapeutic support we can offer changes – learn more about the counselling or mental wellbeing programmes we currently have available.

You may be experiencing anxiety, depression, or any number of other mental or physical health issues. You may have suffered a loss in your life, or have questions about identity, spirituality, or big topics that are difficult to tackle on your own.

Our qualified professionals can help you work through problems openly and honestly without judgement.

 

Why choose individual counselling?

Sharing how you feel is an important mechanism for coping with stress and anxiety. Talking to a counsellor may be easier than opening up to friends or family.

Even if you feel comfortable talking to friends or relatives, a counsellor will always remain objective and impartial, and will not judge you for what you say. Our counsellors are trained to help you resolve complicated feelings and understand yourself better.

Thank you for being so kind and encouraging. This has been the most productive counselling I’ve ever had.
What kind of counselling do you offer?

There are many different approaches to counselling.

Most of our counsellors are integrative therapists, which means they draw from different approaches depending on your needs. Our counsellors shape their sessions based on your unique circumstances. You’re welcome to discuss what may work best for you during your initial consultation.

There’s also plenty of opportunity to discuss reshaping your sessions with your counsellor if you feel things aren’t working. We want you to get the most out of your sessions.

 

How can you help me?

We value and respect everyone as an individual.

In your initial consultation, we’ll discuss any specific needs or preferences you have, and what you want to gain from your sessions.

We’ll take the time to get to know you and understand how your experiences have shaped who you are. We’ll work together to determine your goals and how best we can achieve them.

You don’t need a diagnosis or to be in crisis. You don’t even need to be able to articulate what’s feeling off. You just need to feel like something needs to change – our therapists can help you work through it.

You’ll first attend an initial consultation. Your counsellor will get to know more about you and answer any important questions.

If you and your counsellor are a good fit, you’ll be offered weekly sessions at the same time with the same counsellor.

You’ll work together to gradually resolve your problems and better understand yourself.

It’s important to note that counselling takes time, so it may take a few sessions for you to start feeling better.

It’s important that you tell your counsellor if you feel you’d be able to work better with someone else.

A counsellor will never take this personally, and we want you to get the most out of your sessions.

We have practitioners specifically experienced in supporting people who are neurodiverse or have disabilities. We have counsellors that specialise in issues that impact the LGBTQIA+ community and people of colour.

Counselling works better when you build a good relationship with your practitioner. It’s better to mention it early on if you’d like to try a different counsellor, or let us know when booking if you would like to work with a practitioner with specific skills — we will try our best to accommodate you.
