What Can I Expect?
Once you have made contact with me we can arrange an initial telephone assessment. This call is free of charge and usually lasts about thirty minutes. It's a good opportunity for me to find out a little more about what is bringing you for counselling and what your expectations and goals are of therapy. It is also a chance for you to see if you are comfortable talking to me and if you feel I am the right counsellor for you. If you decide you would like to go ahead then we can arrange a mutually suitable day and time for your sessions to take place either face to face or online via Zoom.
People come to counselling for all sorts of different reasons. Perhaps you have had some big changes happen to you such as, a bereavement or loss of a relationship, job or something similar. Maybe you are experiencing stress and anxiety, difficulties with relationships or work, low self esteem/confidence or feelings of anger. Counselling can give you the opportunity to discuss any concerns or difficult feelings you may be experiencing in a safe, confidential environment. I won't tell you what you should or shouldn't do but I will endeavour to provide a safe, private place where you can take time to explore what is happening in your life. There will be no judgement and together we will work through your issues.
