Counselling is the provision of professional assistance in handling personal problems, including emotional, behavioural, marital, work, educational, rehabilitation, and life-stage problems. Counselling aims to help bring about effective change and enhance wellbeing. A Counsellor relates and responds to others with the aim of providing them with opportunities to explore, clarify and work towards living in a more satisfactory and resourceful way. Counselling is primarily non-directive and non-advisory but can sometimes involve positive guidance by means of information and service.
