Counselling sessions facilitate individuals to engage in a process of listening and intense talking in a safe and confidential place. During this process individuals will be encouraged to express your emotions, feelings and thoughts. The aim is to enable people to become unstuck, to make changes in their lives and realise their potential. It makes connections between past events and current patterns of behaviours that can be causing emotional difficulties in your life. It helps people resolve denial, guilt and shame.
This is a question that people often ask when they are thinking about making an appointment for counselling. The answer is that it depends on the person and the stage they are at: Some people want to address all their issues, some people just want to make a slight improvement in their lives, or to focus on one thing in particular. Sometimes further issues emerge as counselling develops therefore it is difficult to put a timeline on the amounted of sessions needed.
