Counselling/Psychotherapy

Our counsellors offer safe space in which our students can express their feelings in confidence.  Very often the student has had some negative life experiences, for many reasons, and the counselling offers them a chance to move on to a more positive place both emotionally and psychologically. The length and timing of the sessions will depend on the progress of the student, and also as to whether or not they wish to engage. The student has to be comfortable in counselling and this decision has to be theirs. It is not unusual for a student to start to engage and then “pull back” as it can sometimes be scary to face their anxieties and fears but as the trust and confidence between counsellor and student builds they usually find the capacity to positively engage.
