Individual counselling - who is this service meant for?

Teenagers and adults who feel it may be helpful to look at how dyslexia affects their functioning. Difficulties may lead to problems at school, work, college and in other areas of your life, which can lead to a lowering of your self esteem. You may have experienced some or all of the following:

  • Lack of confidence
  • Perception of yourself as 'thick' or 'lazy'
  • Shame
  • Embarrassment
  • Anxiety
  • Poor concentration (made worse by anxiety)
  • Loneliness and difficulty 'fitting in'
  • Work difficulties
  • Examination fear

    This list is just some of the areas you may want help with.

    How do I know if this service is suitable for me or my child?

    The first session is an opportunity to meet your counsellor and ask any questions you may have. You will be able to fine tune what you want to get from having counselling and arrange future sessions if you wish.

    Sessions are usually held at the Indigo Dyslexia Centre and last for an hour. This may be on a weekly basis but the arrangements can all be negotiated at the initial session. You may find that a couple of sessions are all that you require, or you may like to have ongoing support for a longer period of time.

    Confidentiality is important – information is not normally passed onto anyone else without your permission. We can look at areas you have identified as being a problem in living and functioning as an interdependent being. How we work together will be in a way that suits you as an individual. It is our responsibility to treat you with respect and honesty. Hopefully you will have fun as you try out new ways of doing things in a safe environment.

    Feed back is an essential part of us working together. This enables you to experiment with what you are learning- there is no such thing as failure, only feedback!

    How do I know if this service is suitable for me or my child?

    Counselling is £40 per hour.
