What is Counselling?
Counselling is a talking-therapy conducted in a safe and confidential space where you work with a professional counsellor to address mental health challenges. The relationship between the counsellor and yourself is built on trust, empathy, and understanding. By actively listening and offering guidance, counsellors empower you to make informed decisions, develop coping strategies, and make positive changes in your life.

Oak trees have long been seen as symbols of strength and endurance in many cultures. The Oak Counselling logo is inspired by the traditional Celtic Dara knot, which reflects the oak's intricate root structure. Like the mighty oak, the Dara knot represents tenacity, inner strength, and resilience. It reminds us to stand tall and face life’s challenges, much like an oak tree weathering the seasons.
Services
In-Person Counselling
In-person counselling provides a safe, confidential space where you can talk face-to-face with a qualified counsellor. This setting allows for deeper connection, non-verbal communication, and a more personalised therapeutic experience.
Telehealth Counselling
Telehealth counselling, via video or phone, offers convenient access to professional support from any private space. It allows you to connect with a qualified counsellor without the need for travel, making therapy more accessible for those with busy schedules or limited mobility.
Walk & Talk Counselling
Walk & Talk counselling takes the counselling session outdoors into the natural environment. You will participate in counselling while walking around a park or even sitting on a park bench, combining the benefits of gentle activity, fresh air, and the calming aspects of nature.
“Mental health affects every aspect of your life. It’s not just this neat little issue you can put in a box.”
