Frequently Asked Questions

  • What types of issues can counselling help with?

    Counselling can help with almost any emotional problem.  I have listed some of the most common problems below, but there are many more:  


    Anxiety, obsessional behaviour, depression, relationship problems, post traumatic stress, phobias, eating disorders, sleeping problems, stress, self-harming, low self confidence/self esteem, post natal depression, work issues, abortion/miscarriage support, bereavement, physical/emotional abuse, burnout, anger problems, family issues.  General unhappiness.  

  • How many sessions will I need?

    It's difficult to say at the start.  It can vary from 3 or 4 sessions to months or longer. 

  • How will I know when I no longer need counselling?

    This will be down to how you feel about your progress, and whether you have achieved your aim.  I will let you know if I think the work is done.

  • What happens if I want to stop the counselling at any time?

    Thats fine.  Its always a good idea to talk about why, but its your choice.

  • What happens if you feel you can't help me?

    I will try to refer you onto someone that can.

  • What happens if I decide not to continue after the first session?

    That's fine too.  There's no obligation to continue.

  • I am very nervous about coming for counselling, and unsure about what I should tell you.

    Being nervous is very normal.  It is your decision what to tell me.  There will be no pressure from me.
