Clients consult for different reasons at different times in their lives. Sometimes they cannot cope with the demands of life, or they are struggling with an issue that affects their daily functioning.

Are you feeling lost, confused, stressed, angry, disappointed, guilty, sad or depleted? This is usually a sign that you need to look deeper inside to find your way forward. You could benefit from a soul teacher, someone who supports you in the work of healing and restoration.

Are you currently struggling and in pain? Dealing with changes, some expected and some unexpected? These changes may seem overwhelming. This is the time, then to talk.

Each Counselling service approach is tailored to the clients’ needs, circumstances, systemic context, and characteristics.

Despite this, it is still very painful when we are not known or seen by others. We really want to be found, to be understood and to be loved by others.
