Counselling is given for a variety of conditions but Vivienne Parker mainly specialises in bereavement counselling. Many people face trauma in their life and manage to get through it well. The process of counselling allows you to learn to manage your life and pass on from feelings of hopelessness and inadequacy. Terrible shock can leave us feeling stressed and having bad dreams and flashbacks to the event. Talking about these things with a trained Counsellor can certainly help and allow one to move on. No one will say that your grief and pain will vanish,but you will be able to manage it better and be more in control. Some people are so damaged by a horrible life-event they simply cannot function. Everything they do seems to weigh heavy and their motivation and achievements seem meaningless. Counselling as a personal process can bring back good feelings again. Strength and motive can be given and the grieving process for loss allowed to happen. Counselling is not a quick option but while some people are feeling a lot better in one or two sessions. Some people need a few months of regular support. Person-centered counselling is not about instant solutions but allows the hurting individual find the best way for them to cope. It takes all the time you need and can be incredibly helpful and restorative. If you wish to discuss your own Counselling needs in total confidentiality please ring Vivienne Parker on the phone.(on contact page)
