True Colours Counselling

What is Counselling?

If you are experiencing problems or distress counselling can help.

Counselling can provide you the opportunity to explore and talk about your experiences, feelings and difficulties with someone who is qualified and trained to work with you and will accept you for who you are. It provides valuable ‘me time’ to be heard in a safe, comfortable and confidential setting without judgement or offers of advice.

Counselling is aimed at helping you understand your ‘story’ and, ultimately, yourself. We will work towards resolution and develop strategies to help cope better in the future, therefore, allowing you to move forward, reach your potential and live a happier and more fulfilled life.
