Common questions
Before your first session.

Still wondering if this is the right fit?
Send a short message — no commitment. We’ll find a time to talk it through.
Get in touchWhat happens in a first session?
We spend the hour getting to know each other — what brought you in, what’s been hard, and what you’d like to feel differently. There’s no script. We move at your pace and decide together where to go next.
How long is a session and what does it cost?
Sessions are 50–60 minutes. Most major medical aids are accepted; private rates are shared on enquiry. Reach out and we’ll talk through what works for you.
Do you offer online sessions?
Yes — secure video sessions are available alongside in-person work at the rooms in Goodwood, Cape Town. Many clients use a mix.
Is everything confidential?
Yes. The work is held in confidence within the limits set out by HPCSA ethics. We talk through that openly in the first session, so nothing is unclear.
How do I know if counselling is right for me?
If something feels stuck — quietly or loudly — counselling can help you make sense of it. Even one or two sessions can give you a clearer sense of next steps.
