Counselling:

• Helps people identify problems and crises and encourages them to take positive steps to resolve these issues.
• It is the best course of therapeutic treatment for anyone who already has an understanding of wellbeing, and who is also able to resolve problems.
• Counselling is a short-term process that encourages the change of behaviour.

Psychotherapy:

• Helps people with psychological problems that have built up over the course of a long period of time.
• It will help you understand your feelings, thoughts and actions more clearly.
• Psychotherapy is a longer-term process of treatment that identifies emotional issues and the background to problems and difficulties.
