Research shows that in expert hands, online counselling is just as effective as face-to-face counselling, and patient outcomes are identical to those for conventional therapy.

What is phone and online counselling
At Life Vision Counselling our counsellors use a collaborative process that involves the development of a unique helping relationship.
​
The Counsellor acts as a facilitator in helping patients to understand their feelings, behaviours, relationships with others, situations, choices and decisions.
Through counselling you can talk in complete confidence, clarify issues and determine options.
​
Further, the counsellor offers a safe, confidential and non-judgmental context in which patients can:
-
Gain clarity and perspective on the issue;
-
Receive the support you need to resolve issues and make effective decisions;
-
Deal with negative feelings and emotions;
-
Explore personal resources and develop new skills;
-
Find answers which are best suited to your own individual needs and lifestyle.
