Counselling is a safe and private space where you can share your thoughts, feelings, and struggles without fear of being judged. It is not about someone telling you what to do or giving you quick answers. Instead, counselling is about being listened to with care and respect. It is a chance to talk openly about what is happening in your life, knowing that what you say is confidential and that your experiences are taken seriously.
Through counselling, you are supported to explore your feelings and make sense of them in a way that feels right for you. Having someone who understands and listens without judgment can make it easier to untangle difficult emotions, cope with challenges, and find your own way forward. Counselling gives you the time and space to focus on yourself, build confidence, and feel less alone with what you are going through.
What is counselling?
You meet with a trained counsellor, either one-to-one or in a small group. Sessions are confidential. You can share what feels important to you at your own pace. The counsellor helps you explore your feelings and find ways forward that work for you.
Counselling can help with many issues such as anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, bereavement, or loneliness. It can also help if you just feel “stuck” or want to understand yourself better.
How does counselling work?
Counselling at LilyAnne’s Wellbeing is open to anyone aged 16 and over. You do not need a diagnosis to access support. We welcome both neurodivergent people (for example, those with Autism or ADHD) and neurotypical people.
We know that people with Autism and ADHD may face extra challenges with mental health, so our team works in a way that is neurodivergent-aware and inclusive. Our counsellors understand lived experience and adapt support to make it more comfortable and accessible. You must agree to following our counselling boundaries to access support
