SERVICES
Welcome to Barbara Hales Counselling ServicesImagine time set aside for you to focus on your concerns in a peaceful setting in Devon, supported by an experienced BACP accredited counsellor.
Barbara is an experienced counsellor based in Totnes who can help you move forward on your life’s path.
You can talk through your concerns confidentially with her in a tranquil room overlooking a garden.
Why counselling?
Counselling can help you to gain a new perspective on your situation.
The sort of problems men and women from a wide age-range bring to counsellors like Barbara include:- Loss and bereavement
- Concerns about health and ageing
- Feelings of confusion, depression, anxiety or stress
- Lack of confidence
- Low self-esteem
- Difficulties in relationships
- Life-changing situations such as pregnancy, redundancy, divorce or retirement.
Perhaps you are a professional working in isolation, such as a head teacher or a member of the clergy or medical profession, who wants to talk through a situation in confidence.
You may not have a clear problem, but feel that your life lacks meaning or direction. You may want to find out more about yourself.
Counselling is generally seen as dealing with specific issues over a limited period of time.
Psychotherapy goes deeper, over a longer time, and helps you to become aware of previously unrecognised aspects of yourself. It can be helpful if you want to explore what life means to you, or to reflect on important feelings and experiences.
Why Barbara Hales?
Barbara can help you to explore current life issues or concerns, as well as past relationships and repeating patterns and how they continue to affect you.
She will take your concerns seriously and will listen to you with acceptance, respect and supportive challenge, in confidence. You will not be judged, nor will you be given advice. However, you may be helped to gain a new perspective on your situation. As an individual member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) Barbara is guided by BACP’s Ethical Framework for Good Practice and subject to its professional conduct procedure.
Besides traditional counselling, Barbara can offer (where appropriate) the opportunity to explore some issues through:- Drawings and paintings
- Dreams
- Stories
- A series of arrangements created in a sand tray.
