RAMH Counselling Service provides a personalised service aimed at meeting your needs and where you are in your life. The service adopts a flexible, integrated approach providing the best possible means of engaging a person and working with their autonomy to empower them towards greater self efficiency.
We work with individuals who experience a wide range of emotional distress and difficulties and we can successfully support you to improve your mental health, well being and coping strategies.
What is Counselling
At Renfrewshire Association for Mental Health we describe counselling as a partnership between the person and the counsellor which takes place in a private and confidential setting. The counsellor listens to the persons concerns without judging them and helps them to explore options they have for dealing with them.
In our experience the ‘space’ created by counselling is used by people in different ways. Some wish to work out a direction, a way of moving forward and use the sessions to set up and monitor goals in order to bring about change in their life. Others use the sessions to become more self-aware about themselves and feelings and help them feel more in control.
There is a commitment both from the person and the counsellor to the work together with an agreement usually set up at the beginning of the counselling.
There are a number of various counselling agencies in operation across Renfrewshire and East Renfrewshire. RAMH recently compiled a directory of these services. If you would like a copy, please click here.
