What will happen?

Getting started: Pick up the phone, contact us by e-mail or by using the contact form and we will get back to you as soon as we can to make an appointment for you to come in and discuss whether counselling can help - it usually can!

An initial counselling assessment will be carried out to determine the issues we will focus on and explore in more detail what counselling can offer.  This can last for up to an hour.

Counselling sessions arranged following assessment will last 50 minutes.  They will be the same time and day each week or sometimes if preferred can be fortnightly.

Confidentiality will be explained at assessment and it is only in extreme circumstances that a counsellor would ever have to break confidentiality.
Any questions that you have about how counselling works can be asked at any time or if you prefer, you can contact us and we will try to answer any questions you might have.
