KCS counsellors are trained Integrative Therapists - a combined therapeutic
approach that pulls together multiple therapeutic models, allowing support to be
adaptable and most effective. At the heart of our counselling we use a
Person-Centred approach - forming the foundation for other approaches to be
introduced. Person-Centred Counselling – The core of our approach The basis of
person-centred counselling is understanding that the solutions to the challenges
students are facing already lie within them, and can be realised with the help
of a counsellor. An essential therapeutic approach that assists students in
moving closer to reaching their highest potential as individuals. Also referred
to as person-centred therapy, its core principles are; Empathy Through empathic
attunement can we understand why the student is behaving and feeling the way
they are. The counsellor is able to “see through the eyes” of their client,
creating a sense of validation and trust. Autonomy Having built a strong
therapeutic relationship counselling helps develop personal power and resilience
for clients, enabling new choices and decisions.
