Counselling and Psychotherapy for Individuals, Couples and Groups
- Counselling is a shorter term treatment for more specific issues to work out options to your circumstances or to gain support when going through a difficult period, such as grief. Counselling can help you to clarify issues, explore options, develop strategies, gain support and increase self-awareness.
- Psychotherapy or therapy is a longer-term treatment for more complex and long standing issues. The work is more in-depth dealing with core issues that stop you from feeling good about yourself. Facilitating the healing of the psyche can help you experience yourself differently in the world and make wise choices for yourself.
