Counselling
Tim's model of counselling is based on the strength and quality of the relationship that develops. He will provide a a safe confidential space in which to talk and be heard without judgement. It is a space to find acceptance and ways to move forward.
Tim can help you explore experiences that have shaped, influenced and affected your current behaviours and relationships. He will help you understand them so you may choose to challenge or change them and look towards a more positive future.
When you work with Tim you will be able to
-
understand and make sense your feelings
-
uncover concerns and anxieties
-
reconsider and repair relationships
-
begin to heal and value yourself more
