The content of all sessions is confidential and is treated with respect. There are exceptions to confidentiality which will be discussed at the first meeting.

In accordance with the BACP ethical framework for good practice, I am in regular supervision.  The purpose of supervision is that I gain further insights into the way I work with my clients, in order to provide the best possible support to them.  Client anonymity is always maintained.

The first appointment is an opportunity for both of us to decide whether we wish to work together and, if so, negotiate a counselling or psychotherapy contract.

I will ask you some questions about yourself, what brings you to therapy at this time in your life and what your hopes are from therapy.

We will also discuss how I work, fees, confidentiality and the practical arrangements for working together.
