The Garnethill Centre ~ Therapists and Counselling, Psychotherapy and Training Centre Glasgow.

People come to the Garnethill Centre for individual or group therapy for a variety of reasons:

* for help with a life crisis such as separation or bereavement;
* to get a better understanding of difficulties in relationships;
* for help in reassessing their life situation.

Everyone who contacts us will be seen for a first appointment within 2-3 weeks.

On this occasion the individual and the therapist work together to assess whether counselling or psychotherapy will be of help. If they agree that it would be helpful, a series of weekly appointments - usually eight - is set up, or a place is offered in a short-term counselling group, with careful monitoring of progress.

The Centre at present has three psychotherapy groups, each of which meets once or twice a week and is conducted by a specially trained Group Analyst. Group counselling is normally a short-term option. A person may take a place in a counselling group and feel after a short time that this is sufficient.
