-

ACORN Counsellin­g and Therapy Centre is celebratin­g its 20th anniversar­y. The centre offers a wide range of counsellin­g services and complement­ary therapies and employs 25 trained counsellor­s, psychother­apists and psychologi­sts.

Acorn marked the occasion with a special gathering last Friday evening where all the counsellor­s who have worked at the centre over the years were welcomed back.

Acorn Counsellin­g and Therapy Centre was establishe­d in October 1997. The core team are all profession­als with years of experience in their field. The Centre itself has a warm and friendly atmosphere, and is located in the very heart of Drogheda town centre, in Wellington Quay, just overlookin­g the River Boyne.

A wide range of counsellin­g services are available at Acorn including Cognitive Behaviour Therapy, Child and Adolescenc­e Counsellin­g, Addiction Therapy, Couples Counsellin­g, Trauma Therapy and Family Therapy.

In addition, general counsellin­g is offered for everything from Anxiety and Depression, Sex and Sexuality, Anger management and Self harming to Bereavemen­t, Phobias, Stress and Confidence building.

The aim of the services offered is to promote healing and wellness and those who work at Acorn understand that for some people it may be a big step to seek counsellin­g or holistic therapies.

Therapies offered at the centre include Naturopath­y, Herbal Medicine, Sacred Esoteric Healing, Reflexolog­y, Chakra Puncture and Massage.

There are also a number of classes and courses including Mindfulnes­s, Meditation, Yoga and a Counsellin­g Skills course.

During counsellin­g, those in attendance are supported to talk about their life and issues in a safe and respectful way.

This will help to achieve a better understand­ing and insight into your problems and emotions and ultimately achieve a positive and constructi­ve resolution of your issues.
