Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about our counselling services.
QHow confidential are counselling sessions?
Counselling sessions are completely confidential with specific exceptions for safety concerns. We follow strict ethical and legal guidelines to protect your privacy. Information shared in sessions is not disclosed without your written consent, except in cases of imminent danger to self or others, suspected child abuse, or court orders. We explain these limits clearly during the first session and answer any questions you may have about confidentiality.
QHow long does counselling typically take?
The duration of counselling varies depending on individual needs and goals. Some clients benefit from short-term counselling (6-12 sessions) focusing on specific issues, while others may engage in longer-term therapy (6 months to 2+ years) for more complex concerns. We regularly review progress and work with you to determine the appropriate length of treatment. Most clients begin to notice positive changes within the first few sessions.
QWhat is the difference between school counselling and private counselling?
School counsellors are employed by schools and focus primarily on academic, career, and social development within the school context. They have limited time and resources and may not be able to provide intensive therapeutic services. Private counsellors like ours can provide more intensive, individualized therapeutic services with greater flexibility in scheduling and treatment approaches. We also coordinate with school counsellors when appropriate to provide comprehensive support.
QHow do I know if my child needs counselling?
Signs that a child may benefit from counselling include persistent sadness or anxiety, significant changes in behavior or mood, difficulty with relationships, academic decline, withdrawal from activities, expressions of hopelessness, or behavioral outbursts. If you're concerned about your child's emotional or behavioral well-being, it's always appropriate to seek professional guidance. Early intervention can prevent more serious problems and support healthy development. We offer free consultations to help you determine if counselling is needed.
QWhat should I expect in the first counselling session?
The first session is primarily about getting to know each other and understanding your concerns. Your counsellor will ask about your background, current challenges, and goals for counselling. They'll explain their approach and answer your questions. You'll have the opportunity to share what you're comfortable with, and there's no pressure to disclose more than you're ready to share. The session is collaborative, and you'll work together to establish initial goals and a plan for ongoing sessions.
QHow much do counselling services cost and do you accept insurance?
Our counselling services are competitively priced, and we offer sliding scale fees based on income and family size. We accept many major insurance plans and can help you navigate the reimbursement process. During the initial consultation, we'll discuss fees, payment options, and insurance coverage. We believe that quality mental health support should be accessible to all, and we work with families to find affordable solutions.
