Initial Consultation
During this meeting we will explore some of the background to the issues you are experiencing, and I will gather some basic information about you. This consultation will not only help me to understand what you are going through, and how it is impacting you and those people close to you, but our discussions will also enable both of us to understand how I can support you. At no point will you be judged or criticised, and everything we discuss will be confidential.
In some circumstances, more than one consultation may be required. We will use these first meetings to agree what you want to achieve from therapy. I’ll then propose an approach that best meets your needs and will discuss this with you. This may be a fixed number of sessions or the agreement could be more open ended.
We will then arrange a regular time to meet, and agree a fee for ongoing sessions.
