COUNSELLING & SUPPORT SERVICES

WHAT IS COUNSELLING?

The British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP ) defines ‘counselling’ as:

‘Counselling and psychotherapy are umbrella terms that cover a range of talking therapies. They are delivered by trained practitioners who work with people over a short or long term to help them bring about effective change or enhance their wellbeing. Counselling is not about giving advice or directing a client to take a particular course of action. It should not be seen as conditional. That is, attendance should not adversely affect career progression or status at work, counsellors do not judge or exploit their clients in any way.’

How Does Counselling Work?

Workplace Counsellors need to have an understanding of organisational cultures and workplace factors that might have an impact on the psychological health of people at work. Furthermore, workplace counsellors will need to be mindful of the different stakeholders involved, and be aware of a possible tension between the needs of the client, the organisation, the counselling provision and other parties. They also need to be proactive in enabling employees to increase their coping resources through stress management and mental health awareness or well-being training.

Counselling support can also be brought in after a critical incident or work-related trauma. Counsellors with specialised trauma training can offer support to employees immediately involved, those who have seen the event, or concerned colleagues. Having a crisis management plan helps to prepare for such an eventuality.
