What is Counselling?: On Track

Counselling takes place when a counsellor sees a client in a private and confidential setting to explore a difficulty the client is having, distress they may be experiencing or perhaps their dissatisfaction with life, or loss of a sense of direction and purpose. It is always at the request of the client as no one can properly be ’sent’ for counselling.

Counselling or psychotherapy?
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.

Coaching is about getting the very best out of someone and enabling them to make decisions that will improve their life. It is forward-looking - focused in the present and the future. It is practical and down-to-earth, looking at concrete ways to make real progress in the world.

1. An initial 30 minute meeting will be free, to discuss what issues are causing you most concern.
2. You will be provided with a contract that will cover our confidentiality, approach and boundaries.
3. Our sessions are generally held weekly and for an hour.
4. All sessions will be confidential apart from the following exceptions. These are if you feel that you may harm others, or yourself and may be involved in acts of terrorism or any other illegal activity. If we feel that we will have to break confidentiality this will be ideally discussed with you first.
5. That any person under 16 years has a parents permission and signature.

WHAT IS LIFE COACHING?

Life coaching aims to help you achieve clarity and confidence to work through issues that are holding you back from enjoying a challenging and harmonious life. Life coaching is not about making simplistic judgments about someone's life and telling them how they ought to live it. The outcome is still your choice, however, by working together we are able to explore the right track for you.

Life coaching enables you to choose your destination and then to set up easily attainable stages to achieve your goals. With a mutual. empathic, non judgemental life coach working along side you, you will find that you feel empowered to achieve. Life coaching enables you to read the signs and to decide which direction you wish to take.

What happens next?
Your life coach will hold an initial free 30 minute meeting, to discuss what issues are causing you most concern.
Your sessions are for 90 minutes to determine what goals you would like to achieve and what progress you have made in getting there. Depending on the goal and changes you would like to see will depend on the frequency of sessions.

Fees:
£30 per session.
£150 for six sessions.
