How Our Counselling Services Work
Our 3 Phased approach for effective counselling includes:
1st Phase
This is the first step in the therapy sessions provided by our psychologists. At this stage, the problems are assessed and all the information related to the issue is collected. This is a crucial stage of the therapy since missing information may affect the therapy sessions.
2nd Phase
After collecting all the information needed and evaluating the status of the patient and how they handle the issue, the therapist creates specific ways how they can help the patient. The therapists set goals with how they want their patients to improve.
The therapy techniques created by the psychologist are applied to their patients during therapy sessions which will eventually heal them from their traumas and help them improve themselves.
Final Phase
The therapy does not end with helping the
patients through the sessions. Once the therapy ends, patients are still monitored if they have improved their psychological being and psychologists help them in being well for the long term.
