Individual Counselling

Counselling for individuals
with lilliana gibbs

Counselling gives you the time and space to unpack what's troubling you, and to listen to your own wisdom. It's a sounding board and another point of view — comforting and challenging. There's real relief in saying the uncomfortable thing out loud to someone who isn't going to flinch.

Couples counselling is a touchstone in the rough patches: a safe place to unpick the messy knitting life has become, sort through what's been building, and get some clarity back. It can also support you through the changes that put pressure on any relationship — a new baby, a career shift, money, illness, loss.

People often come to individual counselling for

Rebuilding confidence and self-worth
Making sense of long-standing patterns
Bereavement and loss
Life transitions — career, relationships, health, identity
Anxiety, low mood or a general sense of stuckness
Relationship difficulties with family, partners or friends.

Sometimes it isn't obvious why you feel low, irritable or flat — and that's fine. Relief and understanding often come simply from exploring the feeling rather than solving it outright. Unlike the longer commitment of psychotherapy, counselling can offer short-term, focused support, or a touchstone to return to now and then.

Every experience, no matter how bad it seems,

holds within it a blessing of some kind.

The goal is to find it.
