information SERVICE DETAILS

Counselling offers you a safe place to come and talk. The counsellor helps you explore and understand your feelings and difficulties without judging you. They listen and support you to make your own decisions, so you can begin to make changes to move towards feeling and coping better.

NEECS has trained counsellors experienced in working with clients on many issues affecting mental well-being, for example:

- Feelings of anxiety, depression, anger
- Feelings of worthlessness and loneliness
- Difficulties with relationships, family and parenting
- Difficulties following a loss, bereavement or change
- Upset about things from the past
- Struggling with difficult issues/circumstances, which may put you at risk of harm
- Living with long-term mental health issues yourself, or as a carer

Adult Counselling...

We offer an initial assessment appointment, followed by 7 counselling sessions, on the same day and time each week. We are unable to say how long you will have to wait for an appointment, but we will offer an appointment as soon as possible within your stated availability to attend.

At your initial Assessment appointment, you will be given the opportunity to:

- Talk about what has brought you to counselling;
- Hear about what counselling could offer you;
- Decide, together with your counsellor, that counselling is suitable for you.

After you have been referred by your GP, please complete the self-referral form to the right.

By providing NEECS with your details, we consider this as confirmation that you agree to us using them to provide you with the service requested. NEECS will only ever use your details for this purpose. All NEECS staff comply with NEECS' Privacy/Confidentiality Requirements.
