COUNSELLING SERVICE FOR OLDER PEOPLE

IN MID-ESSEX AND BRENTWOOD

AGE CONCERN ESSEX offers a FREE Counselling service for older people.

If you are 55 years old or over and have any emotional problems connected with:

Loss and bereavement
Stress, anxiety or depression
Health conditions that you don't know how to cope with
Relationship problems
Any of a varied number of emotional problems

Would you like someone to talk to alone and uninterrupted in a confidential caring way?

Therapeutic counselling offers a safe atmosphere where you can explore your difficulties, share your inner thoughts, feelings and reactions in a way that can bring meaning, self understanding and a greater freedom to cope. The Counsellor will not give advice but will gently assist in this process.

All Counsellors in the AGE CONCERN ESSEX team are mature people either fully qualified or in the latter stages of training of a recognised counselling course. They abide by the code of practice of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy and work under professional supervision.

Counselling sessions are normally held in a client's home. The sessions usually take place weekly and last approximately 50 minutes. All work is totally confidential within the Counselling Service.

We offer an initial session to start to look at the problems and to establish if this is the help you want and need.
