What happens?  

It is important that you find a therapist that feels like a good 'fit' for you. To help you to decide if Jayne is a good fit for you, there is an initial conversation on the phone or online to talk about the changes that you would like to make and to answer any questions that you might have.  

In the first session you will talk in more detail about the difficulties you are experiencing and what goals you might have for therapy. Jayne will answer questions that you may have about therapy and explain what kind of therapies could be used.

Jayne says "I understand that it can be anxiety provoking to talk about personal difficulties and as such I tailor my approach to suit clients. If you are finding it hard to talk I will ask more questions, and if you have a lot to say then I will listen more. You are also welcome to include another person in the session if that feels more comfortable. If you decide to continue we would agree a plan for therapy and a timescale in which we review regularly to ensure that you are getting what you want and need from therapy. "
