When someone is cruel or acts like a bully, you do not stoop to their level. When they go low, you go high.
Worklife can be very stressful and can lead you to feeling depressed, or suffering from too much anxiety arising out of workplace related issues like managing deadlines, meeting targets, lack of time to fulfil personal and family commitments, or bereaved and disturbed due to some personal problems.
The counselling process is about providing you with a sounding board, giving you a safe place to talk about issues that trouble you, and allowing the counsellor to help you find your own solutions to problems or develop better ways to manage issues. It’s not about giving advice, but about providing a non-judgemental, empathetic and accessible means to allow you to find a way forward.
The benefits of counselling includes helping you to understand the situations and look at them with a new perspective and positive outlook. Help in better decision making. Alternate solutions to problems and tools to help you cope with the situation and the stress.
