I believe that counselling is essentially about becoming more connected and aware. I believe that through the counselling relationship you can feel authentic connection with another human being and that through this relationship you can start to feel more connected with yourself. As you get more connected with yourself you become more aware of who you are and begin to evolve as a person.
