Approach

Treatment Approaches
CoachingRecommended for those who want support and motivation to achieve personal or professional goals, often with a structured, goal-oriented approach.
CounsellingRecommended for those who want to talk through their emotional challenges with a professional in a safe, supportive environment.
I believe that the counsellor's main tool is his own psyche, his consiousness and awereness. All the other tools can be creatively adapted based on the client's inidividual personality and needs.
