The aim of counselling is to bring about positive change in your life.
The purpose of counselling is to create meaningful and lasting change in your life. Therapy offers you a safe, supportive, and confidential space where you can explore what’s really going on for you—without judgment.
In the Session
Your counselling sessions are your time, set aside completely for you. You can bring whatever feels most important—whether that’s a specific problem, a difficult emotion, or simply the feeling that something isn’t right.
I’ll encourage you to explore at your own pace. Through gentle questions and reflection, I’ll help you look more closely at the “why” behind your struggles, so that together we can understand their roots.
We’ll explore the connection between your thoughts, feelings, and behaviours—looking at how they affect each other, and how they might be working against you. From there, we’ll begin to find new ways forward that feel healthier, more balanced, and more empowering.
My role is to help you uncover the emotional resources you already carry within you, so that you can build resilience, self-understanding, and confidence in your ability to cope with life’s challenges.
Everything you share is treated with the utmost confidentiality. The only time I may need to break confidentiality is if I believe you are at risk of harming yourself or others—at which point, my priority will always be to ensure safety.
This is a collaborative process: you set the agenda, and we move at a pace that feels right for you.
Session Timings
Each counselling session lasts 50 minutes. Towards the end, I’ll gently let you know we are coming to a close so you can gather your thoughts before finishing.

How Many Sessions Will I Need?
Every person’s journey is unique. Some people notice shifts after just a few sessions, while others benefit from longer-term support.
As a starting point, I recommend setting aside time and budget for at least five to six sessions. This allows us to build a trusting relationship and gives you the chance to settle into the process. We’ll review your progress regularly so you can see how far you’ve come and decide what feels best moving forward.
There is no obligation to continue beyond what feels right for you.
How Often?
Most people find it helpful to meet weekly at first, as this helps to build momentum and create a strong foundation for change. As you begin to feel stronger and more confident, we can gradually space sessions further apart.
The goal of therapy is not to keep you in counselling forever—it’s to help you recover, grow, and feel equipped to move forward on your own terms. You are always in control of the pace, frequency, and duration of your therapy journey.
✨ Taking the first step can feel daunting, but you don’t have to do this alone. Therapy is a space just for you—where you can be heard, understood, and supported as you find your way forward.
