Counselling is a talking therapy that helps individuals understand themselves and their situation better.
At Counselling South Sheffield, we believe that counselling should be delivered to individuals at a pace and level relevant to their need. The client/therapist relationship is the most important element of any supporting therapy, so clear and simple talking together by the therapist is used in order to put a client at ease.
Counselling offers an opportunity to talk about problems or difficulties that prevent someone from enjoying life. Often people find that they have lost their self-confidence and have started to doubt their own ability.
The counsellor will not judge or criticise, nor give advice, but will listen and help a person understand why they feel like they do.
There are no easy answers, but by supporting and encouraging someone, the counsellor can help them find a clear way through their difficulties.
The counsellor will help them realise what strengths they have and what actions they could take to improve things.
Some clients may have issues from their past or present, but what ever the problems are, the therapy will support in addressing those issues.
As such, counselling may involve just talking to the therapist. You might be expected to complete some exercises; these may be within a therapy session, or may need to be completed at home. The manner in which any therapy is undertaken, is relevant to specific techniques and skills that have been completed by the therapist. Clients ultimately may not know what the techniques are, but will be interested if they work for them - as this is what counselling is all about.
