Counselling for individuals and Couples

 Individual Therapy

A Person seeking Individual Counselling may not know what to expect when coming to Counselling for the first time. This lack of awareness can often delay the important first step of contacting a Therapist. The Therapy session is always a unique experience for everyone, for some it maybe struggling with a current issue, for others it maybe more deep rooted and require more intensive self exploration. Individuals may attend Psychotherapy for many reasons such as , grief and loss, trauma, addiction, relationship issues, issues arising from childhood, such as neglect, physical or sexual abuse. Work / life balance, sexual dysfunction, managing outcomes from adult diagnosis of ADHD and ASD.

Couples Therapy

Personal relationships can sometimes hit a stage where third party mediation may be required. Couples counselling can help in dealing with issues such as communication problems, trust issues, respecting the individual, financial difficulties, sexual problems and infidelity.

At Westmeath Counselling Service we can offer a calm, relaxed space where two people, with the assistance of their therapist, can work out the issues which are impeding upon their relationship. Our Couples Counsellors are trained in various therapies including the works of Dr Sue Johnston, Dr John Gottman and in Imago Therapy.
