What we do

COACHING

COUNSELLING

COACHING

Clifton Strengths helps you unlock what is already great about you. Focusing on your strengths rather than your weakness, it empowers you to step into what you are already good at and hone and develop your skills further.

Our counselling services provide people with a place to come and share what is going on for them, explore things and make sense of things. It is a non-judgemental safe space where you are free to share the things that may be hard to share with others.

COUNSELLING FOR CHILDREN

A key counselling approach Puzzle Piece Connections uses while counselling children is
Child-Centred Play Therapy.

Because the child’s world of play is their natural way of communicating, the play therapist
enters their play world to communicate with them and to help them understand and resolve
any psychological and psychosocial challenges e.g. trauma, separation of parents, loss of a
loved one, chronic illness, etc. In play therapy, children are able to express their experiences
and feelings through a natural, self-guided and self-healing process. Children will be helped
towards healthier and better social integration, growth and development.

Reasons a parent might seek counselling for a child are:
- Anxiety
- Anger
- Emotional Regulation
- Parental Separation
- Big changes in their lives
- Have witnessed a traumatic event
- Experienced abuse

ONE ON ONE COACHING

After completing the Gallup Strengths test to determine what your top 5 or 34 strengths are, a 90 minute coaching session helps you to understand what your strengths mean for you and how they are playing out in your life. Understanding our strengths helps us in both our personal and professional life.

We’ll extensively cover each of your strengths, recognising how you’ve been using them to your advantage in the past and how you can better use them in the future. We will set some goals that relate to your strengths and ensure you leave the coaching session fully understanding of what your strengths are and how they can be used to your advantage in different situations.

It is recommended that you have coaching in your Top 5 Strengths first then once you have a good grasp of them then we can move into coaching around your all 34. All 34 Coaching requires 2 x 90 minute coaching sessions.

Follow up sessions for strengths are available too if you have been coached had an initial coaching session.
