Clarity Counselling.....talking freely, being heard and feeling valued.

What is counselling?

Welcome to my website. I am passionate about helping people work through and make sense of their lives , which often involves/includes past, present and future anxieties/challenges. I offer one to one sessions as well as couples therapy.  Most talking therapies involve sitting with the counsellor and talking about what's brought you to the counselling room. I am a person centered therapist offering face to face sessions , online, email and telephone sessions along with walk and talk therapy and support. My approach is person centered and tailored to each individual.  I do not give advice. I will assist you with finding ways to better navigate your way through life. I believe with the assistance of counselling people have the ability to find their own solutions and the power to make positive change by exploring their choices and circumstances/ life experiences. I offer a safe space for you to 'Be you' and to assist and help you to look at things from different perspectives which will encourage you to explore yourself and also the issues which you bring to the counselling sessions . Counselling can be short or long term. This is down to what you feel is most helpful. I offer a comfortable,  accepting safe space for you to express yourself and explore your world at your pace. Counselling has the potential to be the ultimate self care, which could help you to feel more positive about yourself by increasing self worth , alleviating pain and distress and help you feel better about your overall wellbeing and mental health. Counselling isn't a magic cure , it is a process of exploration and self awareness,  to enable clarity, self worth and growth. 

 

Is counselling for me ?

Do you have questions or concerns about starting personal therapy? I offer an initial telephone conversation where we can talk about your expectations of therapy and how counselling could help you. This initial contact is more like a pre session chat looking at how therapy can help you and how we will work together.  This is free of charge and usually takes around 10 minutes.

I offer face to face sessions, email Counselling , online sessions and telephone counselling appointments. I also upon request and consideration offer home visit appointments.  

All information disclosed during the telephone contact is kept confidential. This will be discussed in more detail when we initially meet /speak.
