What age groups and clients do you work with at HealingwithJade?
I have experience working with adult clients covering all age groups from 18 years old upwards.
How Many Sessions will I need?
As Person Centred Counselling is client led, this depends on you. We are all individuals, and each person will come to counselling to get what they need from it. Some clients might decide how many sessions they would like to have and block book sessions, others will continue coming to counselling until they feel they are ready to end. I offer a review every six sessions so we can discuss the counselling journey so far.
How long are the sessions?
When you decide that you would like to have counselling, we agree on a date and time, usually once a week for 50 minutes. 10 minutes before the session is due to end, I will let you know so you don’t have to worry about the time.
Other options about the frequency of sessions can be discussed to suit your needs, but weekly is the most common and very beneficial for the continuity of the counselling journey.
How are the sessions delivered?
I offer 50-minute telephone, zoom and face-to-face appointments. For telephone sessions, I will call you at the agreed time from a withheld number. For Zoom, you will be sent a link the day before.
WHAT HAPPENS IF I SEE YOU IN PUBLIC?
At HealingwithJade your confidentiality is of paramount importance. If we happen to meet by chance in public, please be reassured that I won't acknowledge you first, unless you acknowledge me. This is only is you wish to, there is no obligation to do so. Our sessions will not be discussed, or any information related to the sessions in order to protect your privacy.
What if I start sessions and change my mind?
You can end your counselling by HealingwithJade at any time if you do not feel ready. What I will say is that starting counselling can be painful before it starts to feel better, so I invite you to discuss any concerns that you have with me, we can have an open and honest discussion to work on your concerns.
