Frequently Asked Questions
What can I expect in my first session?
Your first session is an opportunity for us to get to know each other. We'll discuss what brings you to counselling, your goals, and any concerns you may have. This session helps establish if we're a good fit and allows us to develop a plan for future sessions.
How long does each session last?
Standard counselling sessions are 50 minutes long. This allows time for meaningful discussion while ensuring you have space to process between sessions.
How often should I attend counselling?
Most clients begin with weekly sessions, but this can be adjusted based on your needs and progress. We'll discuss the best frequency for your situation during your initial consultation.
What types of issues do you help with?
We provide support for a wide range of concerns, including:
- Anxiety and Depression
- Relationship Issues
- Work-Related Stress
- Life Transitions
- Personal Growth
- Trauma Recovery
Is everything I say confidential?
Yes, confidentiality is a fundamental part of counselling. Everything discussed in sessions remains private, with few exceptions required by law (such as risk of harm to self or others). We'll discuss these limitations in detail during your first session.
How do I know if counselling is right for me?
If you're experiencing challenges in your life, feeling overwhelmed, or simply want to understand yourself better, counselling can help. We offer a free initial consultation to discuss your needs and determine if our services are a good fit for you.
