Counselling is somewhat unknown in Nepal and there exists certain myths and misconceptions around it. The most common myth is that “seeking counselling is a sign of weakness.” This statement could not be any further from the truth. Seeking counselling is actually a sign of courage and bravery. Understanding that your mental health is vital to your overall health and happiness is your first step on the journey of self-improvement.
People also tend to shy away from counselling because of the question of privacy. Rest assured. Counselling is a safe space for you to open up about your feelings and problems in your personal and professional life. The counsellor ‘s role is to listen to you without any judgment or preconceived ideas and help you find solutions to your problems. They do no offer advice or tell you what to do but rather they listen deeply. Whatever you say inside the counselling room stays within the walls of the counselling room. We understand your need for privacy and we respect it.
Counselling is a unique process to help you navigate your way out of the cycle of trauma that keeps you trapped. Counselling is not a quick guide to happiness. It is a slow and gradual process that heals you along the way.
