Alcohol Counsellor in Eastbourne and Bexhill
Corinn Govan
Counselling for individuals
When we talk to someone who understands the problems we are facing, on a deeper level, we find relief; having the space to talk freely without judgement and the opportunity to explore how to make the changes we want, for a better life.
I offer a safe, supportive therapeutic space for you to talk about what's happening for you. I will support you to overcome your difficulties, learn coping strategies and help you to build resilience.
Counselling gives you the opportunity to understand your relationship with your alcohol use, so you can make effective change to the way you think and ultimately, a positive change in your quality of life.
Is someone you care for affected by alcohol or drug misuse?
If you have a partner or family member with an addiction can affect individuals and the family on many levels. It can be a lonely and exhausting experience having a relationship with someone who has an addiction. You may feel isolated and looking for emotional support.
Counselling provides a safe supportive therapeutic space to help you cope better with these challenges, address your own needs and learn to cope better with a family member or loved one living with addiction.
