What to expect at the twenty minute intro...

• A brief background about my experiences as a counsellor/therapist, including accreditation, insurance, supervision and confidentiality.

• I would like to know what you are hoping to get from therapy, if you’ve had therapy before, and if so, what was helpful or unhelpful.

• If you have any questions prepared I will do my best to answer.

• What are your thoughts of the time, day/evening, you would like sessions? Frequency, e.g. weekly, or fortnightly.

• Pricing- reviewed annually = Initial Consultation £75 (1hr 30mins), future sessions £65.

What to expect next…

It’s surprising how quickly the time goes! If we decide to work together we would book the Initial Consultation (1hr 30mins), and I would send you the following to complete:

• Initial Consultation Assessment form
• Contract
• Preference form

Final Thoughts...

Sometimes questions may come up afterwards, if they do, please get in touch. If you need time to think about it, that’s fine, if you decide not to work with me, that’s fine too. It is important you find the right person for you.
