Access Counselling & Wellbeing

Welcome to Access Counselling & Wellbeing, a safe and comfortable environment where we strive to work together and achieve the goals we set. We believe in building relationships with our clients based on respect, compatibility, and a genuine need to help.

Many people have misconceptions about therapy, such as therapy doesn't work, therapy is not for me, talking to someone about my problems won't help me, I can fix the problem myself, and once I start going to therapy, I'll have to go forever. However, these misconceptions are not true, and they prevent people from enjoying the positive, life-changing benefits that therapy brings.

The truth is, therapy really works. Scientific studies consistently show that behavioural and emotional interventions work as well, if not better, than medication to treat anxiety, depression, and mental health issues. Therapy that teaches you skills will leave you with long-term, healthy coping strategies that you can use when issues pop up. Counselling is a guilt-free environment where you can put yourself first for once, be heard like you may not be used to, taken seriously, understood, not judged, and simply cared for. Life can be difficult, and sometimes we just need to talk, and that's really what counselling is - you have the freedom and choice to discuss what you want on your terms.
