What to Expect

Before Your First Session

• Welcome! Whether you are new to therapy, or have had experience with therapy in the past; the process of finding a new therapist can be a daunting, and challenging process.

• As such, I will try to make the process as simple, and accessible as possible

• Research shows that a ‘good fit’ in terms of a therapist is one of the most important factors of success in therapy.

• Due to this, I offer free 15-minute consultations for you to consider whether or not I may be a good fit for you, and your current goals.

• In this consultation you will have the opportunity to discuss what you’re hoping to get from therapy, and some goals overall.

• The consultation is also a chance for you to get a sense of me, and the way I practice. It is also a space where you can ask any further questions or concerns you may have.

• I recognize that a good fit in regards to a therapist can be hard to find, and it can be a process that requires consideration.

• As such, I will not pressure you to book a paid session, and I typically encourage individuals to take some time after the consultation to consider how they would like to move forwards before booking an initial paid appointment.

• If you feel comfortable moving forward you can book your initial session through jane (an online booking app) with the button located on the banner.

• After booking, you’ll receive an intake form with some general questions/areas to fill out as well as some consent forms reviewing the limits of confidentiality as well as the potential risks/benefits of psychotherapy.
