COUNSELLING

A counsellor’s job is to work collaboratively with you on the goals that you want to focus on, it is not to solve your problems or to own your problems.  
 

You do not need to share every detail of your story. Counselling focuses on moving forward and will be future oriented.  How much time is spent talking about the past is up to you and you will determine how much you share.  
 

Our priority in counselling is to work on the goals you identify.  Together we will develop a treatment plan to guide our work. This plan will include goals and activities that help achieve the goals. 
 

Documentation philosophy – To honor client dignity, file documentation will not include every detail of your story but will focus on the counselling process and progress. 
 

We will jointly determine a session agenda.
