Practice description
I offer an initial free 20-minute call at an agreed time to ascertain your current situation and what you hope for from counselling.
If we feel we can work together, we then arrange to start contact at an agreed date and time - and venue if applicable.
Sessions are 1 hour - at an agreed venue or online/by phone (50 minutes together/speaking with approximately 10 minutes for admin etc).
24 hours notice is required for cancellation; under 24 hours the full rate may be payable.
.We would agree payment details during this session in order to give time for them to be set up.
My first session
First sessions are a relatively informal communication time where we can ask and answer questions.
We will agree an initial timescale expectation at this session - although this is flexible if either party needs to stop the sessions - or if it is mutually agreed - to extend.
Most people attend weekly.
When we are settled we can begin.
Some like to address a specific issue and have a break to fully implement learning and then may return; others feel they have got all they need to address all issues and do not return - its a personal choice.
You may end this session - or others - with a task for the week until our next session.
(This is optional 'homework').
