1. What happens during the free 15 minute call? 

During this time I will ask you to share a little bit more about what you would like help with. It will also give you the opportunity to ask me any questions you have about the way I work and what the therapeutic process would entail, fees, location and short or long term support. 

​

2. If we decide to work together what information would your therapist need? 

If we decide to work together I would send you the terms of working together which includes cancellation policies, bank details for payment and confidentiality etc. This will be asked to sent through via email before we begin, or you can provide me with a hard copy if we meet in person. 

​

3. Should I prepare for the first session? 

Most people have somewhat of an idea of what brings them to therapy, as such no preparation is necessary. We will spend the session speaking about whatever you holding in that moment and potentially reflect on early life experiences. 

​

4. How long are the sessions? 

Each session is 50 minutes long. We will usually meet weekly and at the same time for the duration of therapy. 

​

5. How will I know if my therapist is right for me? 

It can take a few sessions to get to know how your therapist works and if they are the right fit for you. I would encourage you to bring whatever feelings you have about therapist fit into the session so we could explore it further. The therapeutic relationship is at the centre of my work and I will check in on how we doing as we progress. Remember, part of therapy is also about having uncomfortable conversations. 

​

7. What if I cannot make my session? 

I work within a 48 hour cancellation policy. A 48 hour notice must be given in order for that session to not be billed. 

​

8. How would I know when to end therapy? 

I prefer to use the work "pause" rather than "end". The therapeutic journey does not end. We are constantly exposed to new experiences and people and self discovery and healing can be a lifelong process. We often think we need to take a break once we begin to feel less anxious about the thing that brought us to therapy, however therapy can be most productive once we have moved from the discomfit we begin with. If you would like to pause your therapy, we can discuss bringing our sessions to a pause if you feel ready to take a break from therapy.
