So next month I start counselling sessions with a new counsellor.I haven't seen anyone for two years and then it was only briefly.
This woman specialises in trauma counselling and depression and has experience with domestic violence.I am fortunate that she does sessions at a concessionary price.

I am so very pleased to be starting counselling soon,I have waited a long time to be able to get the money together for this.

I am looking forward to having someone support me,listen to me,be on my side,I am hoping to get some traumatic stuff off my chest.
She told me the counsellor that she won't be making decisions for me or directing me at all rather she will help me explore issues in a way that helps me find my own way forward and make my own decisions.....which is what I want to be as independent,self sustaining and me the individual directing her own life as much as I can.

So bring it on.I would love to hear from people with positive experiences of therapy or counselling with details of what that entailed and how it helped you.Many thanksxxx
