A BIT ABOUT ME & COUNSELLING.

I decided to become a counsellor after having counselling myself. I reached out and get some professional help and support from counselling after going through a difficult time. I had never had therapy before so wasn’t quite sure what to expect but thought that I would give it a go and see what happened. I did find it really confusing at first to find a counsellor. I was overwhelmed as I went through the directories and found it difficult to decide who would be the right fit for me. Eventually I contacted a few counsellors and took advantage of the therapists like myself who offered a free telephone call to have a chat and feel for myself if I could work with this person before booking an appointment. Thankfully, I found a therapist who really got me, this was crucial.

The fact that I felt safe with my therapist meant that I could begin to work through different aspects of my life and the effects that my experiences had on both my physical and mental well-being. Through psycho- education l found ways that felt right for me which gave me the strength to move forward in a positive healthy way.
