At Clear Path Counselling, I will enable you to explore your thoughts, feelings and behaviours so you can develop a better understanding of yourself and your situation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">It is important to be aware that I will not give you my opinions, advice or prescribe medication, but I will enable you to find your own solutions \u2013 whether that\u2019s making effective changes in your life or finding ways of coping. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">The way that Clear Path Counselling works is by working to your agenda &#8211; This means that whatever you bring to the room will be what we discuss and explore. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">All sessions last for 50 minutes. Where possible we will work on the same day of the week and time, however I also understand that if you are a shift worker this will not be possible &#8211; to which we will work together to ensure that we have an agreement that would work for both of us. <\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1011\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/clearpathcounselling.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/image0-1-1011x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-410\" style=\"aspect-ratio:0.9873096912820701;width:291px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/clearpathcounselling.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/image0-1-1011x1024.jpeg 1011w, https:\/\/clearpathcounselling.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/image0-1-296x300.jpeg 296w, https:\/\/clearpathcounselling.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/image0-1-768x778.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/clearpathcounselling.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/image0-1-1517x1536.jpeg 1517w, https:\/\/clearpathcounselling.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/image0-1.jpeg 1688w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1011px) 100vw, 1011px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Counselling is a place for you to get a safe and confidential space to talk to a trained professional about your issues and concerns without judgement.
