WORK OF A FAMILY COUNSELLOR

Every family has their own set of issues going on. Some get resolved within days while some may take longer, like months. But then sometimes, things can get out of hands. Problems in a family can be due to various reasons. Some of them may be due to some financial crisis, sudden death in the family, some other calamity or anything else that can shatter the family. These instances as per a well-known family therapist can leave a deep impact on a person’s mental health and hence can have a larger impact on the family. A person’s family is his or her strongest backbone. It is that element of a person’s life that he can fall back on or rely on and count on knowing they are the ones who will never leave no matter what life puts in front of them. But when this support tends to be collapsing, it becomes important to get a family counselling done. A family counsellor is someone who sits the family down and listen to their problems both individually and collectively to get a deeper un...

COUNSELLING FOR COUPLES

Marriages they say are made in heaven. But the two souls need to find each other here on earth to get into this beautiful unification called marriage. Any relationship is a result of efforts put by both people rather that just one. A relationship is like a bicycle. It needs both its tyres to function properly. A both pedals to move forward. Two people in a marriage are the same thing.  But every marriage has its own set of problems.

If the matters become so much worse that they cannot be solved by the couple internally, then they may seek help from a third person. This third person could be someone wise from the same family or some friend who is v...

TACKING PROBLEMS IN RELATIONSHIP

A relationship involves two people, two different personalities who come together, promising each other acceptance and completeness in their own way. When two people are in love, the initial stages or as many like to call it, the “honeymoon phase” does not last for more than a few months. After this phase is done, people actually start to understand each other. They realise that the person that they are with, might be way different than what they thought they would initially be. This is when the relationship undergoes a test. Problems in relationships start to occur and the couple has a challenge of either making or breaking their relationship. It sometimes reaches such a crucial stage where staying together becomes too very difficult and they decide to take a break. Any relationship advisor would second this fact that occasions where the couple comes back together after a break, is rare.  When such issues start happening in a long term relationship, tackling issues b...

It is a time when our everyday being is taken care of by our parents or guardians and that we have to do is play a lot of games, eat well, have good sleep and of course study too. But every child is different and hence, children can have different problems too. If your kid has a problem it will affect their health, mentally and physically and hence it is important to address these issues as soon as possible.  The problems they face might be related to something in school, extra-curricular classes or their friends. Some problems might be of bigger scale like sexual assault, violence, abuse by teacher or any parent and so on. That is why schools today see to it that they recruit the best child psychologist who not only provides a non-judgemental ear to the children so that they talk to him or her freely but also helps them carve...
