Ipcs Inner Peace Counselling Service

The Children's Wellbeing Institute & Inner Peace Counselling Service are based in Hastings, East Sussex, offering Therapies to Children, Young People & Adults

WHAT IS COUNSELLING?
Counselling provides you: The Client, with a Confidential, Non-Judgmental, Safe Space.
It is within this Space; where you can truly be yourself and express your thoughts, feelings and concerns as well as what feels relevant for you at any given moment.

Having a place to talk things over with a Counsellor will help you to find a Deeper Understanding of your own Thoughts, Feelings and Behaviors.

In Counselling you have the opportunity to work through your Conflicts and find Inner Peace.

Often people need to talk about their Past and Present Experiences & Circumstances.

Counselling may feel like a scary step to take; but once you take that step you will find a safe environment for you to Reflect & Focus on what Your Needs Are.

REASONS TO COME TO COUNSELLING
Some people choose to have Counselling due to Traumatic Experiences such as Loss & Bereavement, Sexual or Physical Abuse, Domestic Violence & becoming a Victim of Crime.
It can also be a place to come to talk about your experiences of Addiction, Gambling, Eating Disorders, Relationship Difficulties, Family Problems, Bullying, Long Term illness and Disability as well as Struggles with Life Style Changes & Depression.

Some of the above issues may affect your Confidence & Self-Esteem and could cause Self-Harming Patterns of Behavior and Unhealthy Ways of Coping.

Counselling is also a time for Reflection and will give you Self-Awareness and a gained Insight into any Self-Defeating Behaviors you may have.
Talking over things will help you to feel supported. Together we can find ways, for you, to manage your problems.

HOW COULD WE WORK TOGETHER?
We could spend time talking and exploring what is going on for you as well as using Creative Activities and Art Therapy Exercises.
What-ever you feel comfortable with.
