What to Expect

I encourage you to start your counselling journey with a 15 minute complimentary phone or virtual consultation.  During this call we can discuss your needs, concerns and hopes moving forward.  You can ask me any questions you have and I will explain how I may be able to help you or your child.  Finding the right fit and comfort with a therapist is very important so if I don't happen to be the right one I can provide suggestions for someone who may be better suited.

The first and second sessions are typically spent getting to know one another, helping me understand more about you and your therapeutic goals and for me to provide information on how I can help and what other supports can be considered.  A typical therapeutic plan will take between 6-20 sessions to complete, meeting every week or every other week depending on your needs and schedule. 

All regular counselling sessions are 50 minutes in length with the final 10 minutes reserved for discussing next steps, scheduling the next session and note-taking.
