FAQS
What is therapy?
Psychotherapy is a process that relies on the relationship between client and therapist and employs techniques to relieve emotional, cognitive or behavioural concerns to promote mental health and wellbeing. There are many different types and approaches to therapy, so it is important to find the best fit for you and your goals. Please visit my About Page page for more information on my approach.
Do I need a referral for therapy?
No, you can reach out to Sally directly to set up a 15-minute no-charge video consultation or book an initial assessment session.
How long is the therapy process?
Therapy can range in length of time greatly depending on the client, the goals of therapy and the type of approach used. The approach that Sally uses helps to get to the root of the concerns to create lasting change. Because of this, it is often more long-term, however, she has had many shorter term clients as well. Ultimately, it is up to you and what you’re looking for from the process.

Why is finding a therapist so hard?
It can be tricky to find someone whose approach, personality, and perspectives align with yours. You want to work with someone you can develop a safe and trusting relationship with and who has expertise in the areas you are looking to address. On top of all this, the therapist needs to be available and accepting clients. Feel free to email Sally to set up a no-charge 15-minute video consultation to see if there could be a fit. The best way to see is to connect and get a feel for yourself!
