Most importantly, my job is to listen and understand what you’re experiencing as well as I can, without judgement or criticism.

If you’d like to speak with someone that won’t try to diagnose, pathologise or put you and your experiences into a box.
It would be my privilege to give you the time and space where you can fully express what you’re going through.

Our sessions will mostly be online over Zoom.

Sessions are: 45 minutes - $84

First (Intake) sessions are mainly focused on:
- Sharing a bit of information about the counseling process
- Getting to know you and your background
- Discussing your situation and goals to determine suitability
- Planning our approach and future sessions

From there, we can figure out how you're progressing and find out what is supportive (and what isn't) for you, together.

Feel free to get in contact if you have any other questions~

If Zoom definitely isn't an option, over the phone can be a more comfortable option for our first session or a slightly less effective backup if we have tech issues. Ideally though, we would try to use Zoom.

It can be helpful to organize a cozy and comfortable place that is free from distractions, so we can speak freely and privately.

This will allow us to progress more effectively and safely.

If it is not your first session and we've previously discussed some things to try, then it is very much appreciated when we are able to meet each other halfway.

Most people who know me, will have heard me say this: "it depends."
We Humans are very complex and it is pretty much impossible to know.

You are in control; if you feel like you'd prefer fewer sessions or maybe benefit from more ongoing support, I'm happy to help either way.

That being said, if you feel like our sessions are not helpful, then we could look for other referral options, or you can stop at any time.

You won't be interrogated; you can share as much or as little as you feel comfortable with.
You're not expected know everything you're feeling or thinking. We will work at your pace.
Using earphones or headphones can allow us to understand each other more effectively.

However, there are legal exceptions that we must comply with for safety reasons (Detailed in our 'Confidentiality Agreement Form').

Also, Counselling does not require a health record to be kept, as it does with a Psychologist/Psychiatrist.
