Frequently asked questions.
How soon can I see you?
Usually, we can arrange for an initial session to be within one week. Sometimes during busier periods this may be a little longer, but I will keep you fully informed of my availability.
How do you work online?
I work using Zoom to see clients online.
Do I offer telephone counselling?
I am fully trained to offer therapy via telephone, therefore I can offer this if you are unable to work online.
How often will I need sessions?
Therapy is usually held weekly, however I may be able to offer fortnighly sessions if these are preferrable.
How long will I need to have sessions for?
The amount of sessions you have is entirely your choice, I offer short term (6-8) sessions, and also work longer term with many clients (20+).
Will you give me advice?
As your therapist I will not give you direct advice, I will listen to you, and together we will work through what you are dealing with in the best way for you.
Will I feel better straight away?
Therapy is a process, and as you will be talking about issues that are upsetting for you, this may lead you to feel low, this is natural and is all part of the process.
