What is Counselling?
Counselling is talking together, in a secure place, about your concerns.
It enables you space and time to gain understanding and explore issues.
The form of counselling practised is "person centred counselling".
This is a non-directive form of counselling which represents the autonomy
of the individual and their ability to find their own solutions, promoting
self-acceptance and personal freedom.
The
Service
Each session is 50 minutes in length and is normally weekly. How many sessions
depends upon the individual and the issues brought to counselling. I initially
offer 6 sessions but further sessions may be negotiated. Counselling can
help with issues such as anxiety, depression, panic attacks, low self-esteem,
relationship/personal issues and bereavement amongst many other issues.
Brief notes are taken at the end of each session and these may be viewed
on written request. The service complies with the Data Protection Act 1998.
Confidentiality is kept within the service. However, there are some rare
exceptions when this may be broken and these will be discussed on your initial
interview. Rebecca is a qualified counsellor who receives regular supervision
and works to the ethical practice of the British Association for Counselling
and Psychotherapy.
Cost
The cost of each session is £35 and sessions are available by appointment
only. Evening sessions and Saturday appointments are available by request.
