Your counselling sessions provide a regular time and space for you to talk about the issues that you are facing, and to explore difficult feelings in a confidential, non-judgemental safe environment.

Counselling is not about offering advice, but you might find that you gain insight into your thoughts, feelings and behaviours, and are able to consider if these are helping or hindering your ability to cope.

You may work with your counsellor to look at your concerns, resolve difficulties, and you will be supported in making sense of how you feel.

Upon learning that you or someone close to you has a life limiting condition, it is perfectly normal to experience a mixture of emotions. You may feel angry, upset and confused, or you might feel nothing at all.

Having someone outside of your immediate circle to listen can help you to make sense of your situation. Whether you’re coming to terms with your own change of circumstances, or are a family member, friend or carer in need of support, our team can help.

You can have one to one sessions with a counsellor, cognitive behavioural therapist or art therapist, and we also offer sessions for couples and children. Counselling usually takes place weekly or once every fortnight, here in our confidential counselling rooms.
