In this, our
21st century, there are more ways for us to communicate than ever
before. The advent of mobile telephony, portable computers and the
Internet have made way for the likes of “Social Media” and ‘Instant
Messaging’ in a society that now demands the facility to talk. How
strange then, that the notion of communication has to overcome such a
stigmatic barrier when it wears the label of Counselling.
Counselling occurs in so many forms every single day. As parents, we counsel our children. As friends, we counsel our peers. As employers, we counsel our staff. As service providers, we counsel our customers. As therapists we counsel our clients. As doctors we counsel our patients. Counsellors are Therapists too, having undertaken professionally accredited study and training in order to provide the service of ListeningTherapies. They are bound by the ethical guidelines and codes of practice of societies such as the BACP and The National Counselling Society, alongside many other specialist organisations that provide their own criteria and professional standards. Counselling is about listening and talking, exploration and discovery, learning and application. Unlike some therapies, it allows you to control and develop your own ‘recovery’ – a state of renewed equilibrium and coping mechanisms.
So, why and when do you need to consult a Counsellor?
The answer is that when you are experiencing emotional problems in your life that are impacting on your day-to-day ability to cope, this is the time to seek counsel. Counsellors come to the profession due to the high level of empathy that they evince. They are the parent/friend/employer/therapist that we turn to in times of emotional need,but with an insight into emotional wellbeing that transcends the usual ‘relationship’ we have with our peers. Counselling is about forging a “therapeutic alliance”; put simply, the Counsellor joins you in embracing your problems, sharing your thoughts, feelings, emotions and behaviours, and learning alongside you new ways to address and cope with them. Counselling is not about applying a ‘label’ to you – it is non-judgmental, bound by ethical practices and underpinned by probity.
At LBhealthcare, Counselling is one of the many “Health Training” services that are provided. Many clients already benefit from the ‘physical’health support services and are now afforded the opportunity to focus on their emotional health too. The Counselling service at LBhealthcare embraces many of the ‘usual suspects’ of emotional distress; depression, anxiety, stress, grief and loss - it also embraces perhaps less-observable conditions such as eating disorders, abuse, personality problems and addictions. Relationships, family crises, parenthood and employment issues are all valued additions to the increasing advisory portfolio and there are no topics that cannot be encompassed by the service.
Appointments are invited and welcome on this number: 07543 383709 or email: builtcleversolutions@gmail.com
