• Collaborative goal setting
• Enhanced awareness, understanding of yourself and your emotions
• Progress towards your goals

In individual counselling, you and your counsellor meet one on one in a private, confidential and professional setting. The counselling relationship is safe, genuine, warm and accepting where your counsellor accepts you as you are without forming any judgments about you.  The counsellor listens to you and tries to understand your life situation, helps you to explore your thoughts, feelings and emotions regarding your life situations.

The counsellor would help you identify aspects of your life that you would like to change,  help identify goals for yourself, enables you to manage your challenges better; work on improving yourself/your relationships and progress on the goals that you set for yourself.

You may discuss different perspectives and approaches to the challenge at hand.  You also explore and understand the emotional aspects of the situation and deal with them.

The counsellor will work with you to help you attempt at new ways of thinking and behavior, gain greater awareness of yourself, discover personal strengths find different ways of delaying or coping with your situation.

The counselling process is time bound. Each individual session may last from 50 min to 1 hour. The number of sessions would depend on your goals and your progress, but it does not go on forever either.  At regular intervals your counsellor and you would take stock of your progress towards your goals and make any adjustments if required.

Currently we offer a hybrid model for our services. You can choose to meet the counsellor in person or online over video calls.
