Psychological counselling
Noël Labridy, MA
health challenges and processes of transformation
online and in-person
Health challenges – whether your own or those of people close to you – often give rise to a specific and immediate need for support. They affect everyday life and bring about changes in your professional and social life. Sharing your physical and emotional experiences, and expressing your wishes and needs, can help you feel less alone. This is precisely where my counselling comes in.
As a peer counsellor, I work alongside you to find ways to empower you in dealing with these challenges. Drawing on the principles of narrative therapy, we consciously view problems from an external perspective in order to reduce their impact and strengthen your sense of agency and self-worth.
Consulting Services
The counselling service is aimed in particular at people facing health-related challenges, such as (chronic) illnesses or disabilities, and their loved ones (e.g. parents, carers, friends). People with other concerns and challenges are, of course, equally welcome.
The counselling mainly deals with concrete difficulties and questions.
Everything you share during sessions is confidential.
Key topics
-
Challenges and changes in life circumstances – e.g. work, relationships, social environment, loss, multi-discrimination, physical strength / exhaustion
-
Consulting and practical support with application forms and contact with authorities
-
Providing support for medical appointments, hospital stays and related experiences
Counselling is not therapy. As a psychological counsellor, I am not authorised to perform any healing or therapeutic treatments. However, the counselling can be used as a form of support while waiting for a therapy place or as an accompanying measure.
