What to expect?

Individual Counselling sessions allow you the opportunity to talk one-to-one with an experienced counsellor. The safety of confidentiality and the support of being listened to fully lets you discuss anything you want, whatever issues you bring to the session is up to you, even being unsure is absolutely valid.

​

Why go for individual counselling?

People choose Individual counselling for a variety of reasons. These can include personal issues that they feel they cannot discuss with those they usually talk to, e.g family, friends, and co-workers.

 

Perhaps it is because the difficulties lie with these people. Perhaps there is no one else close by to discuss issues with, having an actively engaged person to talk to is at the core of counselling.

 

Whatever the reason, individual counselling creates a space for you to explore, decide upon and make goals about what you want from counselling in line with your personal situation.

 

At Nuway Counselling we are passionate about providing a client-focused service, one which allows you to build the knowledge, confidence and also practical skills you want to deal with your situation.

 

Anxiety, depression and many other negative emotions can be manageable and with the right supporting skills even converted to motivating experiences, ones which you can learn to harness and control.

 

If counselling is training your mind muscles to manage your emotional well-being, counsellors in individual sessions are your personal trainers. Counsellors should facilitate and recommend options that are of interest to you. They help you get motivated and stay motivated to make active changes in your life that lead to improvement in your mental wellness. 

 

Making a lifestyle change is hard work. Being ready to change is the key. Once you are ready to change, we can help! When you continue to practise and use the skills you learn with us in your counselling sessions, you can achieve any goal you set for yourself confidently and efficiently.
