What is the principle of counselling?

Only you know what it is that hurts or troubles you, although it may be that the real reasons for your anguish are tucked away out of your immediate notice. I will listen impartially and without judging or setting conditions. The journey is one of self-discovery and the first step on it is learning to accept yourself completely, as I will do.

I have a problem, will you advise me what to do?

I'm not an adviser and I certainly don't pretend to be an expert in all the areas where the problem could exist. However, it is true to say that the process of counselling does help in problem solving or decision making. Counselling will help you to put things into perspective so that you can discover the solution which is right for you. It can also support you to look at things from new or fresh perspectives.

I want to change my life, will you help me?

Yes, in the sense that our sessions can be viewed as a place where it is OK to 'be you' and where you can begin to realise just how you want to change. I'll also 'stick with you' during what may be traumatic times and can help you work out a programme for change.

How long will it take?

This depends on so many things that it's really hard to say. A few people come three or four times whilst others feel they need 10 or 15 sessions and occasionally more. In practice, most of my clients see me for between 8 and 12 sessions. I may suggest meeting weekly at first and then perhaps less frequently as time progresses. Even after the formal conclusion of the sessions, we may agree that a follow-up would be useful in six or twelve months time.

I don't know whether it's me, my partner, or both of us who needs help!

Couples counselling is useful where there is tension between two people, usually -- but not always -- partners in a relationship. The best chances of success occur when both individuals enter into the counselling openly and in an honest and committed way. Each partner has to be prepared to look both inwards to themselves, as well as to the other, if they are to get what they want out of this kind of work. This can be hard for many people and I will help and support this process.

Will anyone find out what I've said to you?

I will keep everything we discuss absolutely confidential to the extent that I am permitted within the boundaries of the ACA, Australian Counselling Association. This can be discussed further in the first session. I offer a safe, effective and ethical practice. I may also discuss aspects of my client work with my clinical supervisor. When I discuss aspects of my work with my supervisor I always do so in a way that protects the identity, anonymity and confidentiality of my client.

How will talking get anything done?

It isn't so much about talking as listening. We are all guilty, to a greater or lesser extent, of not listening to our true needs. We may suppress them out of fear, out of a sense of duty, or in an attempt to gain the acceptance of others - especially if our self esteem is weak (or we do not value ourselves). My aim is to help you 'get in touch' with these needs and talking is one of the principal ways in which we will do this. It is not, however, the only form of therapy I use.
