We all have times when the going gets tough, have a low mood, and need someone to talk too. Sometimes we just need to speak to someone face to face, as well as to someone who will really listen to us and our concerns. During counselling sessions, we can work together to help you cope with situations that are affecting you.

Both counselling and psychotherapy are types of talking therapies. These therapies have been shown to help people deal with difficulties such as stress, anxiety, anger management, depression, traumatic stress, sexual abuse and relationship problems. As well as breakdowns, eating disorders, low self-esteem and confidence, loss and grief, bereavement, self-harm and personality difficulties.

We listen to your individual needs and give you a space to talk freely about how you feel. Talking about the things in your life that are causing you problems in a confidential space with a qualified counsellor is an effective way to tackle problems.

Psychotherapy, or talk therapy, is a way to help people with a broad variety of mental illnesses and emotional difficulties. Psychotherapy can help eliminate or control troubling symptoms so a person can function better and can increase well-being and healing.

Problems helped by psychotherapy include difficulties in coping with daily life; the impact of trauma, medical illness or loss, like the death of a loved one; and specific mental disorders, like depression or anxiety. There are several different types of psychotherapy and some types may work better with certain problems or issues. Psychotherapy may be used in combination with medication or other therapies.

Therapy may be conducted in an individual, family, couple, or group setting, and can help both children and adults. Sessions are typically held once a week for about 50 minutes to an hour. Both patient and therapist need to be actively involved in psychotherapy. The trust and relationship between a person and his/her therapist is essential to working together effectively and benefiting from psychotherapy.

Psychotherapy can be short-term (a few sessions), dealing with immediate issues, or long-term (months or years), dealing with longstanding and complex issues. The goals of treatment and arrangements for how often and how long to meet are planned jointly by the patient and therapist.

Child and adolescent counselling helps children or young people explore any concerns that may be causing problems in their social, emotional or cognitive development. The therapeutic process gives them the opportunity to express difficult or confused feelings in a safe environment with clear boundaries. The relationship with the counsellor is non-directive allowing the child freedom to express him/her physically, verbally or creatively. Therapy for teenagers and young people can support individuals with developing their awareness to deal with social situations, relationships both personally and professionally including peer pressure and family, education, sexual health issues.

Another area where children need psychological help is in academics. It is our belief that if children are backward in studies it is due to the reasons that are beyond their control such as low level of intellectual functioning, specific developmental disorders of scholastic skills (dyslexia), emotional problems such as fear of teachers, aversion developed towards specific subjects, poor study habits, low motivation, unhealthy family environments and children reacting to parents by not studying, etc. As part of helping children with problems in academics, we engage in assessments such as of intelligence, screening for dyslexia, aptitude tests, exploring emotional and family related concerns, etc. and provide appropriate interventions.

Individual counseling is a personal opportunity to receive support and experience growth during challenging times in life. Individual counseling can help one deal with many personal topics in life such as anger, depression, anxiety, substance abuse, marriage and relationship challenges, parenting problems, school difficulties, career changes, etc.

Individual counseling is a process through which clients work one-on-one with a trained mental health clinician in a safe, caring, and confidential environment. Counseling allows individuals to explore their feelings, beliefs, and behaviors, work through challenging or influential memories, identify aspects of their lives that they would like to change, better understand themselves and others, set personal goals, and work toward desired change. Disha works with individuals to help them find and rediscover themselves and their happiness.
