When you're ready to take the next step, reach out via text, call, or email. We’ll have a brief conversation where you can share what’s bringing you to counselling and ask any questions you may have.
Counselling is a collaborative process, so this initial chat is an opportunity for us to see if we’re a good match. If we decide to work together, we’ll schedule your first session to explore your concerns further.
Our first session is a chance for us to get to know each other better. We'll discuss confidentiality to ensure you feel safe sharing openly. We'll also recap a few administrative details to make sure we're both clear on the process.
Then, we'll begin exploring what brings you to counselling today. There's no pressure to share your whole life story at once; we can go at your pace and only discuss what you're comfortable with.
Counselling is a talking therapy that provides a safe space to explore your thoughts, feelings and behaviours. We'll work together to understand what's happening in your life and explore past experiences that might be influencing you now.
Counselling can empower you to manage difficult emotions and develop healthier coping mechanisms. While it may involve challenges, the positive results and changes you can make in your life are worth the effort.
Everything you share will be kept confidential, within the boundaries of professional ethics.
