What to expect in counselling?
Many people are nervous about coming to therapy for the first time. Your therapist will take the time to get to know you and your current situation and what brings you in for therapy. The goal of therapy is not to provide advice, but help find direction, insights and solutions for yourself. After an initial assessment, you and your therapist will discuss a treatment plan that works best for you based on your own mental health needs. Some people may need a few sessions, while others may expect a longer course of therapy. We understand that counselling must be customized to each person’s individual situation.
