• Online using Google Meet, MS Teams, or your preferred platform.

• Telephone counselling can also be a convenient and helpfully anonymous-feeling alternative.

Timing:

How frequently would we meet? 

Sessions are a standard 50 minutes. We would typically meet at a regular weekly or fortnightly time, especially to start with, and you may choose to spread them out as things improve.

If you have commitments that make a fixed time difficult, I can be flexible with appointment times. 

How many sessions?

Sometimes even one or two sessions gives someone what they need, although it's useful to think of around 4 to 6 sessions as a likely minimum.

Equally, there are no limitations in terms of a fixed or limited number of sessions. If you feel the need for longer-term support, I can be here for as long as you need.

You are under no obligation to have a specific number of sessions and you are free to cancel at any time. I usually ask for a minimum of 48 hours notice if possible, but I will understand if something urgent comes up.

Do you offer evening appointments?

Yes, I can offer evening sessions if this would work better for you.  Please Contact me to discuss this option.
