In the counselling sessions the client can explore various aspects of
their life and feelings, talking about them freely and openly in a way
that is rarely possible with friends or family. Bottled up feelings
such as anger, anxiety, grief and embarrassment can become very
intense and counselling in surrey offers an opportunity to explore them, with the
possibility of making them easier to understand. The counsellor will
encourage the expression of feelings and as a result of their training
will be able to accept and reflect the client's problems without
becoming burdened by them.
Counselling
or psychotherapy training?
It is not possible to make a generally accepted distinction between
counselling and psychotherapy. There are well founded traditions which
use the terms interchangeably and others which distinguish between
them. If there are differences, then they relate more to the
individual psychotherapist's or counsellor's training and interests
and to the setting in which they work, rather than to any intrinsic
difference in the two activities. A psychotherapist working in a
hospital is likely to be more concerned with severe psychological
disorders than with the wider range of problems about which it is
appropriate to consult a counsellor. In private practice, however, a
psychotherapist is more likely to accept clients whose need is less
severe. Similarly, in private practice a counsellor's work will
overlap with that of a psychotherapist. Those counsellors, however,
who work for voluntary agencies or in educational settings such as
schools and colleges usually concentrate more on the 'everyday'
problems and difficulties of life than on the more severe
psychological disorders. Many are qualified to offer therapeutic work
which in any other context would be called psychotherapy.
Students come to see a counsellor for a variety of reasons such as
relationship issues, bereavement, anxiety and stress, self-image and
self-esteem, gender and sexuality, feelings of loneliness and
isolation and generalised feelings of unhappiness. Often it might feel
there is nothing specific - lots of pressures such as managing
workloads, finances, living away from home, living at home or ill
health. So many things can add up to feeling there's no hope or no way
forward. Whatever your problem don't hesitate to contact us. What is important
is that we are here as a resource for you. Counselling helps you to explore and manage whatever is happening in
your life. Maybe you have some worries or concerns that you need to
think through, or possibly some difficult decisions to make.
Counsellors aim to help you through difficult situations and provide
you with an opportunity to move towards a more satisfying and
resourceful experience of life.
