As the pressures of modern life become ever greater, increasing numbers of people are turning to counsellors for support. Counselling is a contractual arrangement whereby a counsellor meets a client in privacy and confidence to explore and try to help solve some of the dissatisfactions or difficulties, which the client is experiencing.
During counselling sessions the client is encouraged to explore various aspects of his or her life and feelings, talking freely and openly. It is very hard to do this with friends or family. However by talking to someone who neither judges you or tries to change the situation, the client is able to explore and solve his own problems using his own intelligence and the advice of the counseller. By listening attentively the counsellor begins to perceive the difficulties from the client’s point of view helping the client to see his or her problem from a range of different perspectives. Counselling is a way of facilitating choice or change and of reducing confusion. It can also help some one come to grips with a terrible trauma or a terminal illness.
