Understanding the Importance of Counselling Sessions
In today’s fast-paced world, the need for mental health support has never been more critical. Many individuals are turning to counselling sessions as a means to navigate life’s challenges, enhance personal growth, and achieve emotional well-being. Whether you’re grappling with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, or simply feeling overwhelmed, counselling can provide the tools and insights necessary to lead a healthier, more fulfilling life.
What Are Counselling Sessions?
Counselling sessions are structured meetings between a trained mental health professional and an individual or group seeking help. These sessions create a safe space for clients to explore their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. The primary goal is to understand the underlying issues affecting one’s mental health and to develop strategies to address them.
Counsellors can specialize in various areas, including cognitive-behavioral therapy, family therapy, or trauma-informed care. The approach used often depends on the client’s unique needs and circumstances. Each session typically lasts between 50 minutes to an hour, allowing ample time for discussion and reflection.
The Benefits of Counselling Sessions
Emotional Support: One of the most significant advantages of counselling is the emotional support it provides. Life can be overwhelming, and having a dedicated professional to listen and offer guidance can alleviate feelings of isolation and despair.
Self-Discovery: Counselling sessions encourage self-reflection. Through guided conversations, individuals can uncover patterns in their behavior and thought processes. This self-discovery can lead to greater self-awareness and personal growth.
Coping Strategies: Counsellors equip clients with practical coping strategies to manage stress, anxiety, and other mental health challenges. These techniques can include mindfulness practices, problem-solving skills, and cognitive restructuring.
Improved Relationships: Many people seek counselling to address relationship issues, whether with a partner, family member, or friend. Counselling provides a neutral ground for open communication, helping individuals express their feelings and work towards healthier interactions.
Goal Setting: Counselling sessions often focus on setting personal goals. This could be related to career aspirations, personal development, or improving mental health. Having a professional guide you through the goal-setting process can significantly increase the likelihood of achieving these objectives.
What to Expect in a Counselling Session
If you’re considering counselling, you might wonder what to expect during your first session. Generally, the initial appointment involves an assessment where the counsellor will ask questions about your background, current challenges, and what you hope to achieve through therapy. This helps the counsellor understand your needs and tailor the sessions accordingly.
Following the assessment, subsequent sessions will typically focus on specific topics or issues you wish to explore. It’s essential to approach each session with an open mind and a willingness to engage in the process.
Overcoming Stigma Around Counselling
Despite the benefits, many people still hesitate to seek counselling due to stigma. It’s crucial to understand that seeking help is a sign of strength, not weakness. Mental health professionals are trained to handle sensitive topics with confidentiality and care. By normalizing the conversation around mental health, we can encourage more individuals to pursue the support they need.
Finding the Right Counsellor
Finding the right counsellor can be a pivotal step in your healing journey. It’s essential to consider factors such as the counsellor’s qualifications, areas of expertise, and therapeutic approach. Many practitioners offer a free initial consultation, which can help you determine if they’re the right fit for you. Don’t hesitate to ask questions about their experience and treatment methods; after all, you deserve a supportive and understanding ally in your journey.
Conclusion
Counselling sessions offer a valuable resource for anyone seeking to improve their mental health and overall well-being. Whether you are facing specific challenges or simply want to gain a deeper understanding of yourself, counselling provides a pathway to healing and growth. By taking the brave step to seek help, you’re not only investing in your own well-being but also paving the way for a more fulfilling life. Remember, you’re not alone, and support is available.

Asfsgdgf Sheari has to put up with so much SHIT from these clowns. I really have to wonder what she thinks about their case as we get further in. Because, like. Anakin's in two relationships. But he only married ONE of them.
"A marriage that demands your loyalty and prioritization" surely can't be too far off when Anakin has clearly prioritized Padme by marrying her... Does Sheari ever suggest that Obi-Wan would feel more secure in their relationship if Anakin married him too? Make it harder for Anakin to leave, give Obi-Wan equal standing, (shut both their brains down by just saying it) -- or would that be outside the boundaries of what's acceptable to address?
such a good question!!!
so the timing needs to be real perfect for this whole leg of the story - Sheari can bring up the marriage before obi-wan and anakin realize she thinks they’re together but she can’t really get into the meat of the marriage issue (aka by asking why anakin married someone else and not obi-wan when it seems to be the root of a lot of obi-wan’s anxieties about future anakin abandonment - anakabdoment if you will) because if she asked them point blank why anakin hasn’t married obi-wan or shown him he loves him in some legal and binding way equal to the marriage he gave Padmé, both anakin and obi-wan are going to be like well. cause we’re not in love,,,,or together,,,, to her face
And that’s not the way the story is going to go!! So before sheari can really ask about the marriage, anakin and obi-wan need to realize that she thinks they’re a couple and then they’re going to need to decide that they’re going to actively lie and pretend to be a couple so that they can keep seeing her because they’ve already been vulnerable with her and they don’t want to start over with someone else
and before that can happen, they need to actually be vulnerable with her over an issue that they would need her to know about but would be very reluctant to tell anyone or talk about
which is gonna be forthcoming in the next few chapters (as soon as they stop storming out of the sessions)
#asks#couples counseling au#I think because it’s so not the part of the story rn#the bit where it’s fake/pretend relationship is forgotten about#but it is coming#and when it has arrived (and when anakin and obi-wan are aware she thinks they’re a couple)#then there will also be time for those questions about their intimacy and sex life#but we’re just in the opening part where we’re coasting on dialogue that could go both ways#in the ‘obi-wan & anakin’ era tag#not yet the ‘obi-wan/anakin’ tag#oh but I will write an interlude chapter from sheari’s pov#probably in between obiwan and anakin realizing and deciding theyre going to fake it#and before and or during the first session where they fake#it - just so we can check in with poor Sheari and see how the outsider feels about this insane couple#who won the war for the republic#but can’t communicate their way out of a paper bag should Sith Lords not be involved

Asking this because I have encountered therapists and clients alike who have a wide range of answers and I am curious. If you could, in the tags put your age and if you've ever gone to therapy before, or if you are a therapist.
Pls reblog for sample size :)
#full disclosure: i am a therapist but also a sympathy crier#and also human#we're here to support you but we experience emotions in session too#often times we're experiencing/witnessing your emotions *with* you#it 's only happened once or twice but I have shed a tear or two in really heavy sessions#therapy#mental health#therapist#therapists#social work#counseling

Being a domestic violence survivor myself, I know it probably sounds really weird, but there's something really fulfilling about also working with people who cause harm. A lot of people who cause harm aren't able and/or willing to participate in accountability processes (maybe even most of them, honestly, from what I've experienced) but some are.
Maybe the sense of fulfillment comes from a hope that even if I can't stop violence on a grand scale, I can still be a part of why this particular person chooses to make safer choices. Maybe it's because, in every case I've worked so far, that harmful person has also been another survivor**. Maybe it's the hurt little kid in me who used to believe that being queer and neurodivergent made them a terrible person, based on what the world around them was saying, and who's hurt others in lashing out about it. Maybe it's because it reinforces the fact that my abusers' ongoing choice not to change their ways was not my fault but an intentional choice on their parts.
This work DEFINITELY isn't for everyone, regardless of whether or not they're a survivor themselves, but yeah. Emotions.
...
**Not every person who causes harm is a survivor, not every person who's been abused becomes abusive, and either way, having a past of being abused never justifies the choice to become abusive. Just in case this post breaks containment.
#hound barks#yes i did have a counseling session this morning and this person sat down and was like 'i've been reflecting on what we've talked about'#'and here are some insights i wanted to share' and it was like !!!!!! yes you're getting it!!!!! i really hope these insights stick!!!!!!!!

:O what is a part of your fic that you're really looking forward to writing? If you're OK with spoilers obvi <3
I can easily talk about it without heavy spoilers!
There’s going to be a counseling scene with Deanna Troi. I love including those, because she can bring an outside perspective and context to the situation! She comes in near the end to help set everything straight before the resolution.
I’m also going to be having to write my own Sherlock Holmes style mystery. I haven’t thought too hard about the mystery itself yet, but I do have some ideas. At the very least I know exactly how I’d like it to end!
#I’d say I have about three scenes left to write#one I haven’t mentioned here then the counseling session and then the mystery!
