How Counselling and Psychotherapy Works
Helping you to become the best version of yourself
What to Expect in Your First Session
Your initial session is all about ensuring that we can build a comfortable, trusting working relationship. It’s important to find someone who genuinely feels right for you and aligns with your needs. This first meeting gives us both a chance to see if we’re a good fit—there’s absolutely no obligation to continue beyond this session if it doesn’t feel right for you.
In this first session, we’ll focus on an initial assessment. I’ll ask some general questions to get a sense of your concerns and to understand you as an individual. It’s also a time for you to get a feel for my approach and to ask any questions you might have. If we both agree to move forward, we’ll then discuss a therapeutic plan that works for you.
Not Sure About Booking Your First Session?
If you’re exploring options and unsure about your first step, I offer a complimentary 30-minute phone consultation. This gives you a chance to decide if you’d like to book a full session with me, without any commitment. And if you feel ready to schedule a face-to-face session instead, you’re welcome to do so at any time.
