What is person-centred counselling?

Person-centred therapy aims to facilitate personal growth in a non-judgmental and empathetic space where you can express your thoughts and emotions openly. The goal is to empower you to become more self-aware, gain insights into your issues, make meaningful choices, build the resilience needed to cope better and move towards a path of positive change.

What does person-centred counselling entail?

You’ll be encouraged to bring your issues to the session – the counselling is led by you and not directed by me. As your counsellor, I show you genuineness, complete acceptance and compassionate understanding. I ask questions to help you clarify what you think and how you feel so you can find your own solutions. I help you to explore your feelings, beliefs, behaviours, and worldview, so you develop more self-awareness and achieve greater independence.
