About Psychotherapy and Counselling
Psychotherapy and counselling offers a safe and confidential environment where you are able to talk freely so as to reflect, explore and resolve personal distress and life issues. The therapist listens to you talk and helps you to make sense of what it is you are struggling with. Whatever the style or issue you will always be met with dignity and respect. While there are many similarities in psychotherapy and counselling it is important to identify and understand the different approaches.
Psychotherapy
Psychotherapy is a unique interpersonal healing relationship between client and therapist in which the primary focus is on symptoms of psychological disturbances, that create distress and problems in life. It is a professional clinical treatment in which relationship patterns, unconscious thoughts, feelings, wishes and beliefs can emerge and be explored and understood, enabling you to move forwards in your life with increased contentment, empowerment, freedom, happiness and awareness, and with a sense of choice and positive change. Psychotherapy is usually a longer process but may be short-term if required.
Counselling
Counselling tends to be a shorter process that focuses on an immediate problem and day-to-day issues in the here and now. It is used to resolve specific problems or concerns.
