Purely Counselling

There are many reasons why you may be thinking about contacting a counsellor and you can rest assured that at Purely Counselling you are in safe hands. You will meet with a fully qualified, professional counsellor who is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy MBACP.

Your counsellor will listen without judging you and facilitate the sessions, allowing you to work through your feelings and thoughts in a calm therapeutic space, whilst strictly abiding by the BACP ethical framework.

Counselling or ’Talking Therapy’ is a regular time and space for you to talk and explore any difficult, uncomfortable or confusing feelings you have in a confidential and safe setting with a trained professional facilitating your counselling session.

Counsellors do not give advice, but can help you to gain insight and clarity which may help you to cope with a specific issue or crisis, improve your relationships, or find a better way of living your life.

If there is something that you are finding difficult to cope with or understand, or perhaps there is something that is restricting you from living your life the way that you want to, then counselling could help. There are many reasons why people seek the help of a counsellor and each client is unique in their reasons for seeking support.

Some common reasons include the following:
Relationship difficulties, bereavement, anxiety, depression, sexuality, sexual abuse, low self-esteem/confidence, anger, stress, work related difficulties, mental health, bullying, obsessions, phobias, domestic abuse, family issues, loneliness, behaviours that cause concern, separation and divorce, shock, trauma, identity, culture, addictions.

This list is not exhaustive, it just provides a flavour of common reasons that clients give as a reason for seeking support.
