Working with Jude

Person-centered counselling in Great Yarmouth

Working together

 

I welcome your freedom to bring along any tools or items that you believe might facilitate your exploration of your concerns. This could involve sharing photographs, employing visual aids, incorporating objects or music, among other possibilities. The options are diverse and not limited to a specific list.

For potential clients, I provide an introductory session at a reduced rate. This session serves as an opportunity for both you and me to determine whether we feel comfortable working together. During this session, I will provide more details about my counseling approach, the services I offer, and the established policies.

I hold the belief that each individual possesses an inherent capacity for self-healing. Through the provision of a supportive and therapeutic relationship during counseling, this healing process can unfold.

Counselling with Town & Country Counselling

Provisional Session

I provide an inclusive, person-centered approach without any requirement for commitment on your part. This initial interaction allows you to gain insight into my counseling style and assess whether you feel at ease communicating with me. Additionally, it offers me the opportunity to ascertain if I am the appropriate person to assist you and how our collaboration can proceed.

Professional Counselling

Personal Development, Growth

There are times when you might not feel comfortable discussing your concerns with friends or family, or perhaps you prefer not to burden them with your worries. In such situations, a counselor can be a valuable resource. They are entirely independent and impartial, unconnected to your family or friends.

Through our collaborative exploration, you will discover your unique path forward. This process will enhance your understanding of your emotions and feelings, providing the opportunity to change them if you so desire, or to accept them and regain your confidence in facing life once more.

A strong therapeutic relationship can foster personal growth, offering the momentum you may be seeking and initiating the journey toward self-acceptance by cultivating self-awareness. Counseling allows you to become more acquainted with the initial triggers that lead to unhelpful patterns of living and gain a deeper understanding of your overall well-being.

Embarking on a counseling journey can be a challenging process, but I will stand beside you, providing support throughout your therapeutic journey.
