Before you decide
A free introductory call
Before booking a session, we have a short call. We introduce ourselves, briefly talk about why you’d like some help, and you can ask anything, including about fees. It’s a chance for us both to see whether we’d work well together.
You can find out more in what to expect from counselling.
About 10–15 minutes. No obligation to book afterwards.
