What to expect

Although every ones’ experience of counselling is different, research is has shown that most people feel better after attending counselling. In the first sessions your Counselling therapists will ask you to share information about yourself and your concerns. In addition, they will explain how counselling works, the importance of informed consent and the privacy and confidentiality of the therapeutic relationship.  To accommodate this information gathering process, all first appointments at Release Me Therapy run for 85 minutes with next and ongoing sessions lasting 55 minutes.
