About this cause
Talkmatters provides face to face, telephone and video counselling to adults (18+) in Fife. Our service is multi-issue, affordable, open to all and we see people who represent the demographic of Fife. We receive referrals from Health Practitioners within the NHS as well as directly from clients by phone or through our website. Talkmatters provides person-centred, transactional analysis, CBT and pluralistic counselling so we are able to match the client with the most appropriate approach for them.
How this cause brings people in the community together
We will offer 12-18 counselling sessions to adults age 18+ in Fife in order to identify what is causing psychological distress and dysfunction. Through giving a safe, accepting and non-judgemental space, a therapeutic alliance will be formed which will enable emotions to be processed, new ways of functioning to be identified and tested, and trauma to be processed, sometimes for the first time. We aim to bring hope and a new sense of understanding to the person, enabling them to engage with their life and relationships in a new and more positive, healthy way.
