What to Expect
Meet and Greet Consultation
During the first meeting, we discuss what has brought you into therapy, your physical and mental health, and some background information about you. Generally, asking what you may be looking for from psychotherapy, what you want to achieve, and how will that look like. It all depends on your needs. If we feel that the therapist cannot work with you for any reason, we will advise you in the first session and provide referrals to another therapist. You also have the right to notify us that you do not want to work with the therapist – you can be honest about this, and we will understand.
Duration and frequency of sessions
We usually see clients once a week for 50 minutes. We are flexible and can accommodate clients’ needs; depending on your schedule, we may want to meet more or less frequently than this (if clinically appropriate), or you may sometimes want to come for longer sessions.
The type, frequency, and duration of your treatment will be discussed at the initial consultation and will be revisited in due course. We tend to meet the client and on the same day and time every week – it’s essential to attend therapy with regularity to get results; protecting some space in your diary makes this easier to achieve.
While it is important to try and attend regular weekly sessions, we understand that may be times when this is not possible, and we are happy to be flexible and work around these times with you.
How to Pay
You can pay by cash, credit, debit, e-transfer, or cheque at the end of each session. You will be given a receipt at the end.
