Counselling is all about trust. I will describe how I work and I will give you a document which sets out what you can expect from me. It will also set out what I need to be able to expect from you, so that we can work effectively together. This will include regular appointments, what happens if we need to cancel an appointment, what we both need to do to maintain confidentiality, how and when I expect you to pay me. I won’t expect you to sign it but I will expect you to agree to it. If you don’t, then it’s unlikely that we can work together.
