What to expect
Our first contact
Please share the outline of why you would like counselling in an email to begin with, then I can get in touch with you for an initial conversation either on the phone or online. This is a good opportunity for you to see if you feel comfortable talking to me, and for me to find out more about what you would like help with. It will also be important to find out what your expectations are with regards long or short term therapy. Then we can find the best time to meet for our first session. This is a free consultation.
Before the first meeting
I’ll send you an Assessment Form which asks general questions about you, and what you hope to gain from counselling. This is so we have a focus to work towards. I will also send you an Agreement which has some information about counselling and confidentiality, my cancellation policy and payment details.
First meeting
The first meeting may feel a bit daunting which is understandable, but there’s no rush, and you can take your time. It’s your time to tell your story about what's led you to seek help at this time. The first and subsequent sessions last for 50 minutes. I will do a review with you every 6 weeks to check that you are getting what you need from counselling. Sometimes the process can take time, but with a regular review, this helps to stay focused.
