how
can Listening Ear
help me?
Listening
Listening
is not an advisory service but a method of active listening.
Trained listeners will allow you to raise all your concerns,
allowing you to progress along the road to understanding them.
Reflective
listening, coupled with some key questions, has proved to be
an extremely effective therapy.

Counselling
The
aim of counselling is to help individuals to overcome personal
difficulties by exploring, understanding and changing how they
see themselves.
The
counsellor's role is NOT to advise or take over direction, but
to facilitate change by enabling the person to work towards
the point where they can confidently move on with their own
lives.
Delivered
by counsellors trained to Diploma level, counselling covers
a wide range of presenting problems within the boundaries of
mild to moderate mental health issues.
