Our Therapy

---

 This is a traditional therapy used in many areas. This therapy is based on the belief everyone has the capacity and desire for personal growth and change if a person is given the right set of conditions. The counsellor is not seen as the expert who directs the therapy. They offer unconditional positive regard, empathy and congruence in a safe protected space to help the client come to terms with negative feelings this in turn helps the client to change and develop. .

Here we offer one to one and group Clinical Supervision. This is in a safe protected place for Qualified and Trainee Counsellors, and educational professionals to reflect on themselves and their own practice, using the therapeutic relationship offered by a counsellor. This relationship is based on a high level of challenge, coupled with complete support, to encourage the professional to consider problems from another's viewpoint. For the counsellor it is  consultative and can be an invaluable medium of support and feedback used to improve individual confidence and competence, development of reflective practice and the reduction of conflict, stress and burnout which have significant economic, personal and professional implications.  For the Educational professional it is also a place to reflect on the children they teach and the staff and families they work along side.  It allows space to assess the impact of all the demands and expectations placed on these relationships and creates a self supporting culture, able to embrace its challenges and overcome them together.
