Telephone Counselling

It is not always easy to attend counselling sessions face-to-face.  Many people have legitimate reasons why they can’t travel to a counsellor’s office for therapy.

Some of the more common reasons include:

• Feeling so anxious that it would be too overwhelming
• Having children at home who need supervision (not everyone can arrange a babysitter)
• Living in a location which makes it difficult to journey out (whether that be length of distance to travel or just  the inconvenience of getting there)
• Feeling too depressed to consider leaving the house
• Having fears/phobias regarding leaving the house or travelling in a car or public transport
• Having Obsessive Compulsive Disorder
• Not being able to leave work in time to make an appointment, therefore preferring to have a consult while still at work or in transit

Our experienced staff at Lily Studios are comfortable with conducting very effective therapy over the phone.  They are skilled at getting to the heart of an issue and really tapping into what the client needs.  By listening very carefully the psychologist can understand how the client is feeling and realise how to assist.

Telephone counselling is very popular throughout the world. Our staff are specifically trained to achieve great results via a strong and trusting relationship with the client.  All sessions conducted over the phone will remain completely confidential. No information regarding the session will ever be shared (unless required to by law or if the client gives consent).

A client may choose to actually attend some sessions face-to-face if and when it is a workable option for them.  The counsellors at Lily Studios are flexible regarding when the sessions take place and whether they are in person or on the telephone.  Either way the therapist’s goal remains the same:  to completely commit to the client in helping them feel better and enjoy a fulfilling life.

Feel free to call one of our experienced psychologists for a complimentary 5 minute chat before committing to counselling. We are confident that you will feel at ease and therefore wish to continue counselling (conditions apply).
