You will be
sincerely welcomed to the service and receive help within a caring and
confidential setting. People often feel relief when someone understands their
problems on a deeper level. I will be warm, calming and respectful towards you
no matter what you say, and hopefully you will trust me enough to reveal your
concerns. The aim is to help you become an expert on yourself, and hopefully
you will gain some skills to help yourself cope in the future.
Everything
discussed will be treated with the utmost confidence.
