What a first session looks like
Your first session is an opportunity for us to get to know each other and begin building a comfortable, trusting therapeutic relationship. We’ll explore what has brought you to counselling, your relevant history, current challenges, and what you hope to gain from our work together. This initial assessment helps me understand your needs and strengths so we can develop a personalised approach. You’re welcome to ask questions and share at a pace that feels comfortable for you.
