Counselling
Counselling is a collaborative process between a therapist and a client, aimed at facilitating personal growth, self-understanding, and emotional well-being. It provides a safe and confidential space for individuals to explore their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, as well as to address any challenges or difficulties they may be facing.
Through active listening, empathy, and understanding, the psychologist helps the client gain insight into their issues, identify patterns, and develop coping strategies.
The counselling process may involve various techniques and approaches tailored to the individual needs and preferences of the client. The ultimate goal is to empower the client to make positive changes in their life, enhance their self-awareness, and build resilience to navigate future challenges.
Expressive Arts Counselling
Expressive Art therapy can evoke personal transformation in a safe environment through various expressive arts modalities that can meet the needs of individuals, who may otherwise have difficulty expressing themselves through verbal language. Expressive Art helps individuals create a connection to self by learning how to identify and express feelings. Various modalities include dance, movement, poetry, visual art, and storytelling. Individuals do not need artistic skills to engage in the expressive arts process or to experience the benefits of this counseling approach. The expressive arts process equips individuals with the necessary skills to develop or re-define self-worth and confidence, foster resiliency, and strengthen internal power to navigate life’s stressors and transitions.
