Shoreline Counselling

Shoreline Counselling Shoreline Counselling is a Timaru based Counselling Service by Alexia Bensemann.

As a Counsellor trained in Cognitive Behavioural and Narrative Therapy, I work within a strength based approach to support, encourage and empower each individual towards their desired hopes. Working with a variety of age ranges we explore the influence of our thoughts and emotions towards choices and meanings that we make of life.

Come along and join in the conversation exploring our self-defences. Are they unconscious or conscious? How can we adapt them to be beneficial rather than harmful.

Our next workshop is for the 23rd August at 1pm. Have you ever wondered why some people react in the way they do? Have you ever wondered about the Freudian examples of "Defence mechanisms"?

This workshop is going to look at some of the more common ways we react and self-protect. Sometimes our defences are helpful for our relationships sometimes they are harmful. Bring these into conversation offers a space where we can explore ways to change our strategies to create better relationships.

Please contact me if you have any questions or are intending on coming.

It is a just cause we all talk differently. It is still a beautiful way to share the soul.

Have you ever come across someone who has shared a similar story with you? That they have encouraged and inspired just by the story that you share together. To find connection between strangers brings a sharing of neighbours with similarities. What has surprised you in the past about stories that you have shared with others? Bring your curiosity out and you might find neighbours.

This is a Ted talk that I greatly appreciated. Offers strategies when fear is getting a bit stronger and harder to control. Maybe exploring fear and seeing that it is a story and how it might go and what we can do within the story (to come) helps.
