At T n J’s Assessment and Counselling Services, counselling sessions generally run for an hour. During this time, the therapist may ask some questions, and encourage you to talk about what is causing you some concerns and troubling you. Counselling does not give advice but rather helps you to find new ways to think about things, to find new frameworks by providing you with an opportunity to consider things from a different perspective. It is a chance for you to talk through issues or experiences and for the therapist to listen in helpful and non-judgmental ways.
A wide range of experiences, from an everyday concern to a unique circumstance or situation are appropriate for a counselling session. Counselling addresses concerns across many lifestyle and life stage events and circumstances.
