You are probably thinking Counselling is not for me – it’s for others to pursue! If you are thinking this, think again! By simply reading this web page you have taken the first step towards discovering what counselling might be able to offer you. And your next step could be to ask New Leaf Life Design to help you. With a modern approach to counselling, New Leaf provides a safe, comfortable and confidential environment for the ‘new you’ to emerge!
“When I came to you, I was at an all time low. It was so hard for me because I thought that counselling was good for other people. I had been recommended it numerous times, but never thought I would need it. I was wrong. I now believe it was one of the bravest things and best decisions I have ever made.”
Do you need a counsellor to help you manage your anger? Would a counsellor help you with difficulties in your relationships? There may be many other reasons that you feel you need help.
We provide counselling for:
- Emotional problems
- Work related stress
- Family relationships
- Post traumatic stress
- Managing Stress & Anger
- Bereavement
In the past counsellors from New Leaf have helped people deal with problems like these.

Counselling at New Leaf offers a supportive relationship in which you explore any issue at your own pace. Importantly, you are accepted for who you are. Counselling at New Leaf can help you see difficulties more objectively and express your feelings, helping you come to terms with new or past experiences. It can be part of a growing process enabling you to change unwanted feelings. Many people see counselling as an opportunity to undertake personal development in a safe environment – it not necessary to have a “problem” to find counselling useful.
“I feel I know myself better. I have a much clearer idea of my own thoughts, feelings, attitudes & values and a greater acceptance of their validity. I have more self-confidence and a stronger sense of the way ahead. Your skill as a counsellor has been a great inspiration to me on so many levels – I’m really grateful for all your hard work. The sessions were spot on – the most useful thing has been having space to talk about issues with someone trustworthy and able to cope and support me through the challenging bits.”
