My first session

If you decide to contact me, I provide an initial assessment online or in person which is an opportunity to see if you feel comfortable talking to me and for me to establish whether I can support you within my skill set. 

I offer a warm welcome and work sensitively according to how you are feeling when you talk about what is affecting you. 

The assessment involves asking you some questions and inviting you to take some self-screenings for anxiety, depression and post traumatic stress. These do not provide a diagnosis but provide an indication about severity and the different therapy choices open to you.  

If you have any concerns about your mental health then you should consult your GP.

Please note that dependent upon complexity and how emotional you may feel during the assessment it is sometimes necessary to attend a 2nd assessment before I can make a recommendation.
