what to expect in therapy with me

Your first session is a gentle starting point. We talk about what brings you here, what you’re struggling with, and what you’re hoping to change or understand. You don’t need to prepare anything, simply come as you are. I’ll explain how I work, answer your questions, and together we’ll decide whether it feels like the right therapeutic fit.

Yes. I offer a complimentary 15-minute online consultation so you can get a feel for my style and ask anything you need before starting therapy. There is no pressure or commitment, just a space to see if working together feels right.

I operate a 48-hour cancellation policy. Sessions cancelled with less than 48 hours’ notice are charged in full, unless there is an exceptional circumstance.

This varies for each person. Some clients prefer short-term focused therapy (around 10–12 sessions), while most choose longer-term work for deeper healing and self-development. We will review together as we go to ensure therapy continues to feel useful, supportive and aligned with your goals.

Individual sessions are 50 minutes.

Couples therapy sessions are 55 minutes.

Most clients attend weekly, though some move to fortnightly once they feel more settled. We can adjust frequency depending on your needs and the pace that feels supportive.

Therapy can help if you feel stuck, overwhelmed, disconnected, anxious, low or unsure of who you are or what you need. Many clients also come for growth, to deepen self-understanding, improve relationships, build confidence or break long-standing patterns. You don’t need to be in crisis to benefit from therapy.

Yes. Everything you share is confidential and treated with care and respect. The only exceptions are rare situations where safety is a concern, in line with professional and ethical standards. I will explain this clearly in our first session so you feel informed and reassured.

You can book through my contact form, or via the “Book a Free Consultation” button. Once we connect, I’ll guide you through the simple next steps so we can begin.

Yes. I offer online therapy internationally. Appointments can be arranged according to your time zone to keep your sessions consistent and manageable.

I currently do not work directly with insurance providers, and all sessions are self-funded. If your invoice is all you need for your insurer, then yes, you will receive invoices for your sessions to present.
