How we can help...

Finding the right approach 
We are happy to arrange an assessment session that will give you guidance on how to move forward with us or other agencies or therapists. The assessment will take 50 minutes. Some of this time 
will be spent filling out the assessment paperwork, the remainder of the time will involve a discussion about what is troubling you. You 
will never be pushed into discussing anything you are not happy to 
talk about.

Short-term counselling
During your assessment we can discuss whether short-term counselling is appropriate for your needs. Short-term counselling is particularly effective at dealing with issues such as bereavement, divorce, mild depression, job loss, marital or sexual problems. If we decide short-term counselling is the way forward for you, it would not preclude you from going on to long-term counselling if you wished to do so.

Long-term counselling
This is more suited to people with drug or alcohol problems. It could also be for issues that have been unresolved for several years, like severe depression, rape/sexual abuse, emotional abuse, PTSD (trauma), severe mental health problems, or people with complex or multiple issues.
