My counsellor Judith was very good at ensuring I was in a safe place to talk privately. She listened well, understood my issues and was very sympathetic to them, making me feel valued, understood and normal. She rephrased my issues back to me and I could openly discuss what would be more difficult to friends or my (ill) partner, who I try to be strong for. I have limited experience with counselling, (once 25 years ago) and realize these are volunteers, however I expected a bit more guidance and advice and steering rather than just listening and rephrasing.
