Holistic Counselling
Holistic counselling is an integrative approach to counselling drawing on a range of theories and techniques and considerate of all aspects of a person’s being e.g. mental, emotional, physical,spiritual and social aspects.
It is based on a person-centred approach which holds the belief that everyone carries within them the ability to make decisions and resolve issues in a way most relevant to their unique personal circumstances. The counselling relationship provides support and guidance for exploration and discovery, offering you an opportunity to explore your circumstances and your thoughts, feelings, behaviours, hopes and desires and discover your own resourcefulness for initiating change and healing.
The primary focus is on the here and now, that is, what you are experiencing in the present moment in relation to your current challenges.
