Counsellor · 6 years · In the room and online
Six years and the shortest wait in the practice, which is usually the first thing people want to know. I hold more reduced-fee places than anyone here.
A lot of my clients are on their first course of counselling and half of them tell me in week one that they are not sure this is for them. That is a normal place to start.
What comes to Rohan
Taken from the practice list rather than written here, so the two cannot drift apart.
Nights that start at two in the morning and a day spent paying for them.
First session looks atWhen it started, what your nights actually look like hour by hour, and the list of things you have quietly stopped doing.
8–14sessions is usual
The ones that feel like a heart attack, and the fear of the next one.
First session looks atWhere you were for the first one, what you did to survive it, and what you have been avoiding since.
6–10sessions is usual
The eleven o'clock emails, the Sunday dread, the thing you have become at work.
First session looks atYour actual hours for one ordinary week, and what happens in your body on a Sunday evening.
6–10sessions is usual
