There is a common misconception that people only access counselling after experiencing a traumatic, or distressing event and are thus in a state of emotional distress. However, many people enter into counselling due to a feeling of being stuck in the same unsatisfying and unhelpful pattern,or just genreal discontentment in their lives.

It is also often beleived that people come to counselling with a certain goal in mind, and while some people might have certain aspects of their lives or behaviour that they would like to change, it is not always the case, and this is something that we can explore together during the first few sessions.

Furthermore, it is sometimes misconstrued that as a therapist I will offer you advice and solutions. I will offer you a non-judgemental, confidential and safe space where we can explore together any areas that you would like to change. I may ask you, what may seems at times, odd questions and I might share my thoughts and hypotheses with you, at times I feel it would be beneficial.
