Counselling is a service sought by people who are looking to find some answers, resolutions or a greater understanding of thoughts, feelings and behaviours that are of concern to them. These concerns come in many different forms, often perceived as problems or challenges that are limiting one’s ability to live life the way one wishes. They may be described as mental health problems or mental illness or come in the form of relationship issues. These concerns may also include people's aspirations towards a greater sense of wellbeing or be focused on increasing satisfaction in a specific area of one’s life. Counselling can be brief and focused on specific solutions or longer in duration and cover a broad range of presenting issues.
