FAQ's

Why Therapy?

Whether the issue is big or small, persistent or fleeting; connecting and having someone be with you, will provide a space for you to explore whatever is going on for you.

There are many reasons why people want to find a therapist. Some common reasons people reach out for support may include depression, anxiety, trauma, addiction, grief and loss or difficulties in your relationships.

Some areas in your life you may already be kicking goals and have it all under control and yet, some areas of your life you could use a little support. Perhaps, it’s just about wanting to find some answers to grow and get a better understanding about YOU.

What even is Counselling and Psychotherapy?

The answer really varies from therapist to therapist but also client to client.

I believe that what ever happens in the space is what you work with together. Counselling and Psychotherapy for me is about unpacking, growing, learning, understanding and improving oneself, our wellbeing and how we live in the world.

What is the difference between counselling and psychotherapy?

The professional body PACFA say that both utilise an interpersonal relationship to enable people to develop self-understanding and to make changes in their lives. Although Counselling and Psychotherapy overlap considerably, there are also recognised differences in terms of aims, approaches and training. While the work with clients may be of considerable depth in both modalities, the focus of counselling is more likely to be on specific problems or changes in life adjustment. Psychotherapy is more concerned with the restructuring of the self.

Is what I share in sessions kept confidential?

Yes absolutely. Confidentiality is sacred in all sessions including individual, online and group therapy. Everything that is told in session is confidential.  I will only breach confidentiality if it is necessary to prevent serious or imminent harm to oneself or others. Safety is key!

What is your Cancellation Policy?

You can cancel or reschedule an appointment anytime if you provide 24 hours’ notice. If you cancel an appointment with less than 24 hours’ notice or fail to show up, you will be charged the full fee.
