Q: What Happens at a counselling Session?
A: At your first session Chris will talk with you for up to one hour. Some people find this session is all they need to clear their thinking and help them decide what to do and no further counselling is necessary. You and your counsellor will talk through your problems up until you decide that they are no longer problems.
