FAQ
What can I expect when I come to counselling?
I offer a free 15-minute phone call to help you decide if I’m the right counsellor for you, with no obligation to book a session.
If you do decide you’d like to go ahead, then in our first session we will find out more about:
- Your reasons for coming to counselling
- How I work and can help you, and how we can best work together
- What you are hoping to gain from coming to counselling
- Confidentiality
- Some of the problems which have been causing you distress
It is also important for you to ask any questions of your own, and you may want to think about these before we meet. Writing them down beforehand can sometimes be helpful.
When will we meet?
Our 50-minute counselling sessions will usually take place on a weekly basis at the same time each week. We will regularly review how the sessions are going so you can ensure that you are continuing to benefit from them.
