What does a typical client come to counselling with?
Are you an adult, a couple or a child or young person?
There isn’t such a thing as a typical client and for me, that’s the beauty of being involved in this type of work is that in every interaction with another person the individuality, creativity, beauty of them just impresses upon me how amazing individuals are, that despite what’s going on their life they are still showing up, breathing and have hope that things can be ‘better’!
