Service Description

Your First Step Toward Healing A 90-Minute Session to Begin Your Counselling Journey Every journey begins with a first step - a moment of courage where you decide you no longer want to walk your path alone. If you are considering working with a counsellor in Redcliffe and Brisbane, this 90-minute Initial Consultation offers a gentle, spacious beginning. This extended session allows us to slow down, settle in, and explore what has brought you to counselling at this time. Together, we create the foundation for a therapeutic relationship built on trust, understanding, and mutual respect. What Happens in the Initial Consultation? This session is your opportunity to share your story in a safe, supportive space. We explore questions such as: - What has led you to seek counselling now? - What experiences, challenges, or patterns have shaped your journey? - How are these concerns impacting your life today? - What do you hope will change, soften, or begin to heal? - What does a meaningful, value-guided future look like for you? You are welcome to go as slowly as you need. There is no pressure to have everything figured out - we simply meet you where you are. Before the session, you will complete your intake forms so we can make the most of our time together. A Collaborative, Tailored Approach This first session is where we begin to map out the path ahead. Together, we will: - identify your therapeutic goals - explore what support you most need - consider which approaches or modalities may be helpful - create a personalised plan that aligns with your values and pace - determine whether we feel like a good fit to work together Finding the right counsellor is essential. My commitment is to support you in the way that best serves your healing - and sometimes that includes helping you find the right practitioner if this is not the perfect match. A Safe Place to Begin Counselling is a deeply personal journey, and the Initial Consultation is where that journey begins with intention and care. Sessions are available online or in-person at Redcliffe, supporting clients across Brisbane and beyond. If you’d like to learn more before committing, you are welcome to request a free 15-minute phone consultation - a gentle way to connect and see whether this space feels right for you. Your journey toward clarity, balance, and emotional wellbeing starts here.
