Counselling enables you to express your thoughts and feelings in a safe space.
It’s completely understandable that you and your loved ones will experience a range of emotions after receiving a life-limiting diagnosis. Whether you’re feeling sad, angry, confused, or depressed, you are not alone in your feelings.
Counselling is a confidential regular appointment for a number of weeks, usually on a 1:1 basis. It can be face to face, online or on the phone. We will support you in exploring your thoughts, feelings and behaviours at some depth to help you cope during this time.
