Counselling

The quality and professionalism of WSM’s counsellors lies at the heart of our EAP’s counselling service.  Behind all of our innovative solutions, customer service and exceptional reporting analysis, nothing matters more than the quality and professionalism of our counsellors in supporting employees and their loved ones – day-in-day-out. All of WSM’s counsellors are either BACP or UKCP accredited and meet WSM’s exacting network affiliation criteria of: experience, insurance, accreditation, supervision and suitability of counselling premises.

The counsellors and psychotherapists work to a variety of theoretical approaches, understanding that each person and their issues are unique. These may include:

  • Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT)
  • Solution-focused brief therapy
  • Person-centered counselling
  • Psychotherapy / counselling
  • Neuro-linguistic programming (NLP)

Our Occupational Health Nurses can advise on issues such as symptoms and treatments, medication and surgery, inoculations and travel vaccinations.
