How counselling is offered
I offer Online (Teams platform) and telephone counselling sessions.
The platforms I use are on Teams. Clients have a choice of what form of counselling sessions they would like to opt for, whether that is online, telephone. Online counselling offers an ease to access your sessions anywhere.
This will be a 10 minute call discussing information of what you are looking for and where you can ask any questions. I will discuss what I can offer as your potential counsellor and how we would move forward within the counselling process.
Once you have agreed to pursue counselling sessions with me, we will go through an assessment. and a contract. This will allow us to gain a deeper insight on what you hope to achieve from counselling and how the counselling process works.. This process will take an hour..
This will be the start of our journey together. Each session will be held on the same day and time on a weekly basis. This is your time and your safe space to address whatever issues you are struggling with. Issues can range from historic time or in the here and now. As mentioned earlier sessions are held on a weekly basis, however, if you require additional sessions in between scheduled sessions this can be explored together..
Bank holiday sessions can take place if required additional to weekly session.
