It is normal for sexual issues to arise in counselling. Our training and years of professional experience allow us to deal with these issues with sensitivity and respect and within appropriate boundaries.
Since scheduling a counselling appointment involves the reservation of a time specifically for you, a minimum of 24 hours’ notice is required for rescheduling or cancelling an appointment. Unless we reach a different agreement, the full fee will be charged for sessions missed without notification.
Every person is different. Within a reasonable period of time after the start of sessions, your Therapist will discuss your treatment plan with you, and this will include how often you will attend, based on your needs and your schedule.
It is possible that by coming to counselling on your own, you can make significant changes within yourself, which can benefit your relationship. Even if your partner won’t come to counselling, you can work on the part you play in the patterns and dynamics of your relationship and this will generally have a positive impact on how you function as a couple.
We can’t guarantee that we can save your relationship. What we can do is help you and your partner identify your negative patterns and facilitate mutual understanding.
We aim to make both partners feel supported. We therefore establish an alliance with each partner and try to get an understanding of both perspectives.
We work by appointment only. We see clients from Monday to Friday taking the first appointment at 10:00 AM, and the last appointment at 5:00 PM. Some Saturday sessions are available. Online sessions can be arranged.
