It’s completely normal to feel unsure — starting therapy can feel like a big step. You don’t need to have everything figured out before reaching out. We offer a space to explore what’s going on for you at your own pace.

In an initial session, we can talk through your concerns, what you’re hoping for, and whether therapy might be helpful. There’s no pressure to commit — sometimes just having that first conversation can bring clarity.

If we’re not the right fit, we’re happy to signpost you to other options that might better meet your needs.
