What is counselling?

The brain is the most complex part of our body. It controls every aspect of our consciousness.

Stress, anxiety, emotional pain, negative thoughts and behaviours, are natural human reactions to life and situations. Unfortunately, they can overwhelm and dominate your day to day life. When this happens, the ability to carry out tasks, work and manage relationships will begin to be seriously affected. It may also result in a deterioration of physical health.

Studies have shown that our minds have the ability to heal when offered the correct environment and support.

Napier Counselling offers a form of therapy called counselling. This is practiced in a safe, private and empathetic environment. Together, we explore and challenge negative thoughts, emotional pain, feelings and behaviours which overwhelm you. Through counselling these will no longer dominate your life and you will be able to move forward more positively and with confidence.

Counselling options with
Napier Counselling

Counselling sessions last for 50 minutes. You will meet with your Counsellor once per week at the same day and time.

Short term counselling tends to comprise of between four and 10 sessions. Its objective is to identify and work through issues which have been affecting your day to day life. This may help you feel emotionally stronger and better placed to cope with life.

In longer term counselling you will explore and work through underlying issues which affect even more; the core parts of your “self” which has resulted in the way that you experience the world and interact with it. As a result, your emotional pain may begin to ease and dissipate and you will feel more positively in control of your life.
