“I provide a safe, relaxed atmosphere where clients can feel totally accepted. I am young and counsel from a place of understanding the developing generations and all that affects them. I stand in contrast to my much older competitors and in many ways shatter the stereotypes that people hold about counsellors. ”
When you hear the word ‘counselling’ or ‘therapy,’ what do you think of? For many people it conjures up images of lying down on a big leather couch, being asked questions by a distant and impersonal therapist in their 60’s, probably wearing a grey suit. And as well as this many people hold the view that counselling is only for ‘broken people,’ or for people who are really messed up. Because of these views, some people may never even dream of seeking out counselling, even if they did find themselves in an incredibly difficult stage of life, with nowhere else to turn.
While it is true that many people only come to counselling when they’re at their breaking point, it doesn’t need to be that way. Counselling, or therapy, is essentially the process of looking inwardly and discovering new tools that will help you live your life on purpose. So many of us live as mere spectators in our own lives, as we allow life to happen to us. Urban Therapy London can be the first step in taking back control.
