Reducing Self-Harm

 

There are many reasons for why people self-harm and it is often a way of communicating distress. 

Some people may harm themselves because they cannot put their feelings into words, some may deflect emotional pain to physical pain and others might want to make invisible feelings visible.  

Other reasons might be to escape from the feelings of trauma, to gain a sense of control or to express suicidal feelings. 

Self-harm carries a lot of shame and stigma, and this makes seeking help difficult. 

Through counselling we can talk about your reasons for harming yourself and hope to relieve some of your underlying feelings, ultimately reducing your harming behaviour.  Please do get in touch today.
