WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT FROM YOUR FIRST THERAPY SESSION

Counselling takes place either: in person, in my counselling cabin, over the phone or via Skype / Teams. It's entirely you preference how we meet.

When we meet for your first counselling session, there will be some short necessary paperwork to complete. 

I will talk you through our contract and how confidentiality within counselling works.

​

Once the necessary paperwork is complete, I will ask you to tell me a little about yourself and to explain what has brought you to counselling.

​

I will tell you a little about how I can work with you to help you achieve your goals and overcome what has bought you here.

​

Counselling sessions last for 50 minutes; counselling can be an emotional experience and can bring up difficult thoughts and feelings. I will advise you when we are near the end of the session so that we can close the session correctly with you feeling emotionally safe and able to leave.
