What Happens During a Session?
Yasmin’s sessions usually go for an hour and are available online by facetime, telephone, skype or zoom. Please let reception know which mode you prefer when booking your appointment. The first session usually involves getting to know each other and finding out about the reasons and /or goals you have for coming to counselling. Yasmin understands it is not always easy for people to come to counselling and have to start talking, so she prefers to go at the client’s pace, and allow them to share what they feel comfortable sharing.
How often a client attends is up to the client and the issues they are addressing. In general, clients will often see me weekly to fortnightly in the beginning and then monthly or just when they feel it is needed.

Payment is required on completion of the session.
Please give 24hrs notice to cancel or reschedule appointments.
