There are many reasons that people come to counselling.
Counselling is a safe space to work out our problems and rediscover some direction in our lives.
Counselling can be a short-term piece of work on a specific problem, or a longer-term exploration.
The counsellor's job is to listen and understand, to ask some thought-provoking questions, sometimes to inform and occasionally to gently challenge. This can help you get some perspective on your life, understand yourself, and decide what (if anything) you would like to do differently.

"The search for our selves is the most agonising, isn't it? - and yet the most stimulating - and one simply cannot escape it". - Karen Horney
