What is Counselling? Counselling aims to help you explore and clarify problems and issues that matter to you. It may help you develop resources and skills to cope with difficulties. It could also help you to get through a distressing time in your life. We, the counsellors, listen to what you are really saying, accepting and understanding where you are at and respecting your feelings. We will not tell you what to do, but we can help you to come to your own decisions. Counselling is not only about problems, it also offers opportunities to get to know yourself better and to develop as a person.

Stress can become a vicious cycle without the stress management techniques needed to manage it. The words “…But I can’t relax……”can become commonplace in a person’s life. In small amounts, stress can be tolerated. However, prolonged or intense stress levels can impact on our relationships, work performance, and lead to panic attacks and/or depression. Common symptoms can include irritability, lack of concentration, sleeping problems, negative thinking, changes in appetite, lack of motivation, loss of libido, social withdrawal and mood swings. Stress can also contribute to physical symptoms such as skin disorders, headaches, muscular tension, high blood pressure and other bodily aches and pains.

Addiction Counselling & Psychotherapy Addictions come in number of guises, but can take a serious toll on physical and psychological health. Symptoms of addictions may include depression, panic attacks, sleep disturbance, obsessive-compulsive traits, deteriorating relationships and poor work performance. Many people with addictions consider their behaviour to be a craving, dependence or bad habit. If your day to day functioning or health is affected, or if the behaviour takes up a large amount of time or money, then you may benefit from addiction counselling and psychotherapy. What is Addiction Counselling, Psychotherapy & Psychiatry? Addiction counsellors can help you identify whether you have an addiction and may suggest a course of counselling sessions to help overcome your addiction. If serious, you may also need to meet with a consultant psychiatrist to diagnose, monitor and treat any mental health issues. Addiction psychiatrists may also be able to refer you to a rehabilitation centre if a residential stay is indicated.
