Counselling and Psychotherapy

​
Picture

​Counselling

Sometimes we experience challenging situations that are outside our ability to manage in our usual ways. 
The therapist will work with you to help you to explore and understand your situation or the event that you have come to counselling to address, and help you make the appropriate changes or adjustments in your life.
Counselling can be described as shorter-term work, which focuses more on specific issues and events. 

Psychotherapy

At times we want to address the deeper underlying causes of our persistent dissatisfaction or unhappiness and  recurring problems.
​ 

Psychotherapy can be described as involving more in-depth work than counselling, usually taking longer and exploring more fully those deeper aspects of ourselves; our inner world and personal experience, and the ways we may have of dealing with ourselves, others and the world. Psychotherapy is more suitable for those who's problems are of a longer standing nature, or for those individuals who wish to gain insight into their personalities.

The therapist's approach to psychotherapy recognises the link, not always conscious, between past events in a person's life and their present experience, and appreciates the therapeutic benefit and advantage of the relationship between the client and the therapist in their work together.
