About Your Counselling Sessions

Initially the first session will focus on gaining an understanding of the issues you bring along. You may not have spoken about it to others before, or even tried to read a few books to help you understand your situation or perhaps you have discussed it at length but don’t seem to be getting anywhere.

Clients often feel that they walk away feeling lighter after the first session, some with new insights or have a clearer understanding of what they want to work on and towards. Subsequent sessions will focus on developing your exploration and choices on what is important for you.

 Visit my FAQ page for more information on your counselling sessions.

Session Length

Each session is 60 minutes duration for individuals and 90 minutes for couples. Once a couple has settled into a working phase, the session time may drop to 60 minutes.

Research indicates that attendance at sessions weekly will provide a stronger outcome. Coming along monthly or having long gaps between sessions is not advisable as each session will feel like a catch up on what has been happening rather than reviewing and working through your issue.
