Frequently Asked Questions
How many sessions will I need? What should I expect?
Our counselling is open-ended, which means there’s no fixed number of sessions — it all depends on your individual needs and goals.
In your first session, we’ll go through key essentials like contracts, boundaries, confidentiality, and goal planning. It’s also the beginning of the therapeutic relationship, where we begin to explore what’s brought you to counselling and how we can support you.
Some people come for a few sessions, others stay longer — we’ll regularly check in on your progress and make sure it’s working for you.
