We would start with an initial contact by telephone or e-mail, which would allow you to explain a little about why you feel counselling might help at this stage. We would then arrange to meet for a 45 minute initial session to see whether we both feel we can work together and to clarify any questions you may have.
I have some low-cost sessions available for people on low incomes or who are counselling course students — please enquire.
If I felt I was not able to help or was not the best person for you, I would always discuss this with you and offer to direct you to a more appropriate source of help.
