PERSONAL COUNSELLING SERVICES
Hello
My name is Ian and I have been running a personal counselling service since 2001. I work primarily as a Person Centred Therapist. I undertook counselling myself in years gone by and believe that having a warm and confidential relationship with a professional counsellor where many issues can be discussed, helped in working through my concerns and enabled me to positively move forward with life.
As well as this person centred approach, others such as Solution Focused Brief Therapy and CBT are additional methods of working that can be adopted allowing the client to work in a way that offers the most benefit to them.
How Counselling can help
Counselling is a therapy that helps the client to better understand their thoughts, feelings and behaviour –in short –themselves. It helps people resolve issues that are concerning them, offering an opportunity to look at problems that need addressing. All sessions are strictly confidential and counsellors work to a code of ethics, in my case to the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists.
Work Experience
I have had experience in the education and voluntary sectors counselling clients with bereavement, chronic illness, caring, work and personal stress and anger management issues. Additional experience in the NHS includes both the primary and secondary sectors, in research and training-helping people to work though personal concerns in the workplace.Client concerns have included abuse, anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, self confidence low self image and phobias.
