WHAT IS PSYCHOTHERAPY?

Psychotherapy is a tool that helps us to understand our emotions better and to help us improve the way our emotions work for us.

Psychotherapy is designed to correct the difficulties we face in understanding ourselves and others, trusting others and communicating successfully what we are feeling. Ideally, it also helps us feel peaceful, confident, authentic, and unashamed.

We are more aware of the importance of looking after ourselves and attending to our mental health. The demands placed upon us by modern life can make us so busy that we forget or feel like we don’t have the time to check in with ourselves. It can be not very clear to know where to begin with one’s mental health.

Identifying what your individual needs are is a crucial focus of the team at Marino Counselling and Psychotherapy. We believe engaging with a counsellor or psychotherapist should be routine and accessible. Therefore, we make it our mission to remove any stress sometimes associated with beginning therapy.

We can offer a quick one-to-one chat to answer any questions about the process. Depending on what suits you best, this can be in person or over the phone. If you would instead come straight in for a full consultation, our booking system means you can organise your first session online in a matter of moments.

People engage a psychotherapist for many different reasons. No matter your life challenges, a therapeutic relationship’s support can help.

Psychotherapy is not only for the distressed few or those suffering from pronounced mental health struggles – Psychotherapy is for everyone.

Whether you face a significant change, want to feel less anxious, or feel confused and uncertain about where you are, psychotherapy’s clarity and awareness will make change and decision-making seem less daunting.
