Will you tell anyone what I tell you in sessions?
All sessions are confidential. However, confidentiality will be broken if you or someone else is in harm. This will be discussed in depth in the first session and will form part of the counselling contract.
What is an initial assessment?
The initial assessment consists of being asked a few questions about yourself, what you want from counselling and your background. It lasts between 20 minutes to 1 hour. It is also a chance to see if I am able to support you but also for you to see if I am the right counsellor for you.
