Willful Minds Counselling Services

Description

Often counsellors get asked if we believe that everyone needs counselling. I believe that everyone could benefit from counselling but not necessarily “need” counselling.
In my perspective the role of the counsellor is a “guide” for the client to go on a journey of self-exploration. However, not all guides are a suitable match. The suitable guide would be someone who could join the client on this explorative journey and help bring awareness, understanding, and direction to their life. I believe each human being have the capacity to find their way through life; however, not everyone have the awareness to see the obstacles that are in their way. Some fall prey to the “should” and “should nots” of others distracting them from how they wish to be. Others are stuck circling through their labyrinth of choices, encountering many dead ends. From my experience, those that seek counselling are those that sense something is missing from their life… something that is preventing them from living in a fulfilled way and thus now they seek answers and resolutions. It is my belief that everyone has the capacity to heal and achieve greatness without any intervention. However, for many people this greatness is covered by negative influences of life and healing slowed because there is always something in the way. I hope that by our encounter, we can rediscover the natural human capacities to heal, to live, and to be.
