Free introductory phone call
Free introductory phone call
I offer a free 15-minute phone call to all new clients. This gives us an opportunity to discuss the support you’re looking for, answer your initial questions and consider whether my service is a suitable fit.
We can also discuss whether in-person or online sessions would work best for you.
Your first session
Your first session
Your first session gives us time to explore your reasons for seeking counselling, assess your current wellbeing in depth and begin developing a counselling plan tailored to your needs.
You don’t need to have everything worked out before you arrive. We will take the time to understand what matters to you and what you would like from counselling.
There will also be time to discuss any further questions that have arisen since your introductory phone call.
Counselling for children and young people
Counselling for children and young people
Parents and carers are welcome to discuss attending sessions or allowing their child to attend independently. Together, we will agree on arrangements that support the young person’s needs, comfort and safety.
Before counselling begins, I confirm the appropriate informed consent arrangements, including parent or guardian consent where required. We will also discuss confidentiality and how communication with parents or carers will work.
If you do not attend your child’s session, brief updates may be provided by email where appropriate and agreed. These focus on information needed to support your child’s wellbeing and safety, while respecting their privacy.
If you would like a longer discussion about your child’s support, you are welcome to book a separate parent consultation. The session length and fee will be confirmed when booking.
Payment
Payment
Payment is by bank transfer and is due at least 24 hours before your appointment. Bank details will be provided when your booking is confirmed.
Cancellations and rescheduling
Cancellations and rescheduling
Please provide at least 24 hours’ notice if you need to cancel or reschedule your appointment.
For cancellations or rescheduling with less than 24 hours’ notice, or missed appointments, the full session fee remains payable.
Privacy and confidentiality
Privacy and confidentiality
Your privacy is important to me. Counselling sessions and records are confidential, with exceptions where disclosure is required or permitted by law, including to address serious safety concerns or meet reporting obligations.
We will discuss confidentiality, consent and any parent or carer involvement before counselling begins. You can also request access to your personal information or ask for a correction.
For further information, please read my Privacy Policy or contact me.
