Often times, when dealing with self-esteem issues, we have found it valuable to explore attachment style as it gives the counsellor and client intel on the foundation of the client's beliefs about themselves. This results in a deeper understanding of the root of the presenting self-esteem issues, enabling us to rewrite the client's beliefs about themselves and improving their self-esteem.

I thoroughly enjoyed my sessions with Paciane. She treats sessions with respect, care and insight; creates a non-judgemental environment, and makes sense of what can seem like chaos. She asks the right questions at the right time - won't pathologize you.

We use a person-centred approach as it allows the counsellor to tailor the sessions to each individual client. This approach requires the client to be honest and transparent, as their progress is affected by withholding information from the counsellor. During the first session, we identify the core topics that the client would like to explore. This sets the foundation of the counselling process.
