Below you can find answers to some common questions about counselling. Please feel free to call us to discuss any of these or other questions you may have.

What kind of issues does it help with?
Counselling helps individuals with a whole range of issues, emotional and physical, such as:

What happens in the first session?
We offer the first counselling session at a substantially discounted rate - see pricing page.

This is an opportunity for both you and the counsellor to decide if it feels right to work together. You are free to ask questions about our experience and qualifications, as well as about our background in relation to the specific difficulties you bring.

How long do sessions last?
Our first session is described above. Subsequent sessions usually last an hour, though longer or shorter sessions may be negotiable.
