Our counselling in the Twickenham and Surbiton area offers an opportunity for individuals experiencing a variety of issues, such as depression, anxiety, stress, anger and even trauma. Likewise, counselling is excellent at relieving work stress, relationship problems, physical pain, loss and bereavement in a supportive and helpful way. This treatment is best applied where a fully structured psychological approach, such as CBT, isn’t considered necessary.
History of Counselling
Like CBT, counselling has its foundations in ancient Greek practice. However, modern-day psychotherapy is better attributed to Sigmund Freud. Then came Carl Rogers, who developed the ‘person-centred’ approach we know today, focusing on warmness and genuineness between therapist and client. Counselling has continued to be built on by practitioners throughout the years. It retains its position as a well-respected therapy to help clients overcome the symptoms of a variety of mental health problems and better understand their situation.
