Frequently Asked Questions

​​

How Do I Know If Counselling Is For Me?

​

A wide variety of people seek counselling during challenging periods in their lives. If you are considering whether counselling may be helpful, the best way to determine this is to book an initial assessment. This first meeting is completely without obligation. It provides you with the opportunity to meet me, discuss any concerns or needs you may have, and decide for yourself if you feel you could benefit from counselling. If, after this assessment, you decide that counselling is not the right choice for you, that is absolutely fine—there is no commitment to continue with further sessions.

​

What to Expect in the First Sessions

The first couple of sessions are considered an ongoing assessment. This is to ensure that therapy feels comfortable and appropriate for you. The process is designed to be supportive and flexible, ensuring that both of us feel confident about proceeding with therapy if that is what you choose.

​

How Many Sessions Will I Need?

The number of therapy sessions you may require can vary significantly from person to person. Some individuals find that just a few sessions are sufficient to address their needs, while others prefer to engage in longer term therapy. Ultimately, the decision regarding the number of sessions is yours to make.

​

Your Choice and Supportive Endings

There is no obligation to commit to a predetermined number of sessions. If, at any point, you decide to conclude your therapy, rest assured that I will work with you to ensure the process ends in a supportive and considerate manner.

​

How do I cancel sessions?

You can cancel by phone, text or email. The cancellation policy is available here 

 

How often do I see you?

I offer weekly sessions and fortnightly sessions. During your initial assessment we will agree a set day and time each week for us to meet and this will be your time. In the event of needing to be flexible due to other commitments, I will work with you to find a suitable time each week that works for you. Therapy is most effective with regular attendance.

 

How do I pay?

You can pay by either cash or bank transfer

There are car parks near to the buildings where I am located.
