Person Centred Counselling in Cumbria with Acorns Therapy South Lakes …so what exactly is person centred counselling?

Person centred counselling is an highly empathic, gentle and affirming approach to therapy. It allows time and space to build a trusting and open therapeutic relationships, for you as a client to really feel held, understood, and listened to.

Person centred counselling explores your strengths, and personal resources that will help you to work through your difficulties and build up your self esteem and confidence.

It takes a stance of the client as the expert on themselves and their life and their struggles, whilst I as your therapist help you explore and make sense of those difficulties, in a non judgemental manner, helping you to move positively forward. It promotes developing independence, self awareness, and a positive self view.

What you explore in person centred counselling is led by you the client, and you will feel truly held and comforted and motivated to move forward.

As a person centred counsellor I truly value what my clients bring to their sessions at South Lakes therapy, and help them to see value in themselves too. I work at your pace, and in a sensitive and creative way to establish a positive therapeutic relationship.

When working in a person centred way with children, I often incorporate other creative ways of working, to help young people to express themselves in a range of ways.
