What is counselling?
Having to deal with life’s challenges can bring up difficult and strong feelings of anxiety, sadness, anger or guilt...
Or, we may even feel empty in a very obscure or unsatisfactory way. Counselling or therapy can offer you a place to explore difficulties you are having in your personal life with someone who is trained to explore and sort through those feelings. It is therefore vital that here at Steer into Counselling we create an atmosphere of trust and safety, so that you feel able to become open about who you are. This means that our Counsellors do not offer judgements about you or advice.
The process may help feelings become more understandable and manageable, and may help you come up with choice or changes you want to make. It may help you come to terms with things that cannot be changed.
This helps because we can develop self-awareness and get in touch with the truth about who we are and what makes us tick. This can improve our ability to have control over our lives, instead of being at the mercy of emotions that we do not understand.
The advantage of counselling is that it offers the opportunity to explore the various ways in which we relate to other people.
It helps us work on the acknowledgement and expression of various things that make up the empathy that connects us with other people, things like: gratitude, forgiveness, satisfactions and dissatisfactions, hope and fears, needs and wishes, sadness and other vulnerabilities. All of these things lie behind anger.

The purpose of Person-centred Counselling
The core purpose of the person-centred counselling approach is to facilitate the client’s personal growth by allowing them to explore and utilise their own strengths and personal identity. A person-centred counsellor focuses on developing a strong therapeutic relationship with the client in order to help them process issues that maybe preventing their personal development and progress.
The purpose of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
Research shows that CBT is the most effective form of treatment for those coping with depression and anxiety. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) is a talking therapy that can help you manage your problems by changing the way you think and behave.
It's most commonly used to treat anxiety and depression, but can be useful for other mental and physical health problems. CBT is based on the concept that your thoughts, feelings, physical sensations and actions are interconnected, and that negative thoughts and feelings can trap you in a vicious cycle. CBT aims to help you deal with overwhelming problems in a more positive way by breaking them down into smaller parts.
In sessions you're shown how to change these negative patterns to improve the way you feel. Unlike some other talking treatments, CBT deals with your current problems, rather than focusing on issues from your past. It looks for practical ways to improve your state of mind on a daily basis.
