The Counselling Process

I provide counselling to individual youth and adults, as well as to parents and families. When we first meet, we’ll take some time to go over two forms (an ‘informed consent’ and a short intake). Then I’ll ask you to share what it is that’s bringing you to counselling, and what you’re hoping will be different as a result. Together, we’ll agree on what we’re working toward, and then we can make a plan for our work, including how often you may want to arrange sessions.

Sometimes, when a person has started seeing me individually, they wonder about bringing a family member into one or more sessions, or having their family member see me individually as well. This is usually possible, and I can explain more about how this might work. Feel free to contact me for more information.

Individual sessions are 50 minutes and cost $152.25 ($145 + $7.25 GST). Family or parent sessions are 50 minutes and cost $162.75 ($155 + $7.75 GST). Longer sessions can also be arranged. I accept payment at the end of each session by cash, cheque, or e-transfer.
