Addiction is defined as not having control over doing, taking or using something to the point where it could be harmful to you. We are here to support anyone who feels they wish to make a change in their use of alcohol, drugs, or gambling.

Counselling is a type of talking therapy which allows people the space to discuss any difficulties they are
experiencing in a safe and confidential environment. Our counsellors will encourage people to talk about what they are going through in order to uncover root causes, as well as thinking and behavioural patterns.

Humanistic therapies focus on self-development, growth and responsibilities.

YES you can self refer to ourselves through our webpage or on the phone by calling 01463 220995. A self-referral to counselling fosters a stronger commitment as individuals proactively seek support. Taking personal initiative demonstrates a genuine desire for change, empowering people to actively engage in the therapeutic process. This self-driven commitment often leads to more impactful and sustained positive outcomes in the counseling journey.
