Individual Counselling for Adults

Psychological distress is often the result of difficult experiences and situations. The nature of life and its challenges means that we all experience distressing situations at times, however at times  this can become too overwhelming leading to depression, stress or anxiety. Individual therapy allows adults to take responsibility for their emotional needs and deal with past or current hurts in a safe and secure setting.  

Adult counselling offers a confidential, private space for clients to build resilience and coping skills to deal with their stressors. Interventions are tailored specifically to the clients needs and vary from short-term to long-term.
