Frequently Asked Questions

Will you be silent throughout our session?

No, not all. I am hear to listen and give you the space you need to explore what you wish with the session. I am not passive, I will be reflecting body language, highlight words or phrases you may use. My clients often say they feel I am relatable and friendly.

What is discussed in the Free initial assessment?

You can share with me briefly what brings you to counselling and perhaps what you would like to achieve. I offer long and short term counselling, so this could also be discussed.  You may ask any questions about my counselling approach or the process. 
Its this initial session that allows you to gain a sense of what I am like and if you feel comfortable with me.

Is everything in our session confidential?

Yes it is. There are a few exceptions to this i.e safeguarding. I write about this in more detail in my client contract.
Any brief notes or assessment forms are kept in a lockable cabinet, where only I have access. 
I use ProtonMail, which is end to end encrypted, this offers reassurance that any correspondence between us is secure.

Do you offer concessions?

I offer a limited number of spaces to clients on low income . Please contact me to see if I have any spaces available at this time.

How many sessions will I need?

This is completely up to you, there is no minimum or maximum amount of sessions. We will do regular reviews throughout our work together.
