Welcome to
Satori Counselling Services
Hi, I am Yvonne, the Director and senior therapist here at Satori Counselling Services. Welcome to our website and I hope you enjoy exploring the information and photos we have put together to try and provide a sense of what we offer, and what you can expect when you engage with us.
Satori is a Zen Buddhist word which loosely translates to ‘finding new meaning’, and our intention here at the service is to support people who are experiencing all manner of life’s hurdles, to do just that.
We believe that finding peace, developing a strong sense of self and finding our own exceptional way to live meaningfully and with purpose is achievable and attainable no matter where we are in our life journey, or what roads we have found ourselves travelling.
We understand from our own lived experiences how different or difficult life challenges can impact on well-being, and how the hand we were dealt can sometimes impede our ability to thrive.
In a tranquil non-clinical space filled with light and close to nature, we explore without judgement, how you want to live your life. We will honour your story and invite you to believe and value what you already bring to the world. Together we will explore possibility, exceptions, courage, and hope, to deepen awareness and heart’s yearning to know and trust your Self.
Counselling and Psychotherapy
Often the word counsellor is interchanged with the word psychotherapy.
While Satori Counselling Services can help you with both, there is a distinction between the two which may be helpful to know:
Counselling
A helpful non-judgemental way of working through particular issues which are concerning you and or interfering with your life. Counselling can be a single session or longer.
Psychotherapy
An approach which can support change and growth through exploring life stories and and the connections and meanings we make of them. Psychotherapy is usually a committed undertaking held over a longer period of time
