What to Expect in Counselling

Get-to-Know-You Session

  • A 25-minute introductory session to see if we’re a good fit

  • Usually the first step before committing to regular counselling

  • A chance to talk about what’s on your mind, ask questions, and explore your goals

  • Completely free, no pressure, no commitment

This session is all about getting to know each other and ensuring counselling feels right for you.

Your First Standard Session

  • Sessions typically last 50 minutes

  • Focus is on exploring your concerns and experiences

  • You can bring a specific issue or simply explore how you’re feeling

  • Counselling is a space to reflect, understand, and be heard, there’s no pressure to “fix” anything

How Sessions Work

  • Sessions are flexible and online, fitting around your schedule

  • You choose the topics and pace; I guide, support, and explore with you

  • We focus on understanding patterns, emotions, and experiences

  • Counselling is collaborative, together we find approaches that help you feel more confident, balanced, and understood

What You Might Notice During Counselling

  • You feel heard and validated without judgment

  • You gain clarity about your feelings, patterns, and choices

  • You notice small but meaningful shifts in confidence, perspective, or coping strategies

  • You have a safe space to explore sensitive topics, including identity, relationships, or personal growth

Counselling isn’t about being “fixed”, it’s about understanding yourself more clearly, exploring your experiences safely, and finding strategies that fit your life.

Every session is your space to talk openly, explore at your own pace, and feel supported in being yourself.
