Sessions

What to expect from your first session

This is your opportunity to be able to tell me about what has been happening for you. There is no onus on you to describe your full personal and historical experience (although many clients find this helpful and it is perfectly ok to do so) if you don’t feel it is particularly relevant, we can simply focus on what is happening for you in the present, in your life as it is now. There is also no expectation for you to give a polished, linear presentation of your experience. If you find yourself going off on many tangents, it still contributes to my ability to get a full picture of what you are experiencing. In short, your first session (at least) is there for you to express freely what’s going on for you.

  • How to get started: You can email or call me to request a time and date for your first session. Alternatively, I offer a free 15 min telephone consultation which would allow us to be introduced, for me to explain the next steps into counselling, answer any questions you may have and organise your first session.

  • Sessions: Sessions usually take place once a week or fortnightly (this isn’t a rule, simply what is typical) and will last for 50 minutes. I offer both short term and long-term therapy, face to face as well as online/telephone sessions are available.
  • Face-to-face sessions: These are held at ‘The Space Manchester’ in the beautiful Royal Exchange, over 200 years old, a secure, private building in St Ann’s Square, central Manchester.
