Questions
What types of issues do you help with?
I support clients with anxiety, depression, grief, relationship issues, and trauma. My approach helps explore these challenges through compassionate, non-judgmental conversations.
How do remote sessions work?
Virtual sessions use Zoom, WhatsApp, or FaceTime. They maintain confidentiality while offering flexibility. We'll create the same supportive environment as face-to-face meetings through secure digital platforms.
What happens in our first meeting?
The initial session explores your current concerns and establishes if we're a good fit. You'll share what's troubling you in a supportive space without criticism or interruption.
Are sessions confidential?
Yes, all sessions maintain strict confidentiality. You'll have a private space to discuss sensitive issues without worrying about impact on others or judgment.
How often do sessions occur?
Most clients meet weekly or fortnightly. I'm flexible to accommodate individual circumstances while maintaining consistent therapeutic progress and support.
When do in-person sessions resume?
Face-to-face appointments will restart in early 2026 following my home transition. I'm currently maintaining continuity through remote sessions during this period.
