First Steps

Our First Session

Of course I want to be sure that what I can offer as a counsellor is appropriate for you before there is any commitment on either side. With this in mind, I offer a free half hour appointment, during which we can get to know each other a little.

I can explain as much as you would like to know about how I work, my training and philosophy; you can ask me as many questions as you like and hopefully you will get a sense of whether or not I would be the right therapist for you; by its very nature, counselling is a personal experience and I will do my utmost to make you feel comfortable and at ease.

If you decide to proceed, we can discuss your needs as to the length and frequency of your sessions. At any time you can decide to stop your counselling sessions with me; I only request that you give me twenty-four hours notice of any cancellation.
