We’ve compiled the most common questions about counselling to help you feel informed and supported
1. What types of counselling do you offer?
At Vp Counselling we provide:
Individual Counselling for personal challenges such as anxiety, depression, self-esteem, bereavement, and domestic violence.
Couples Counselling to support relationships through communication, conflict resolution, and rebuilding connection.
Low-Cost (Online) Counselling for students and individuals with limited income, to ensure mental health support is accessible and affordable.
2. How do I book a session?
You can book a session directly through our online booking form or contact us via email.
3. Do you offer online sessions?
Yes. Sessions are held online via a secure video platform, offering flexibility, privacy, and accessibility, especially for those with busy schedules or limited local options.
4. Who qualifies for low-cost counselling?
We aim to make therapy affordable. Please get in touch with us if you're unsure whether you qualify—we’re happy to discuss your situation.
5. How long is each session?
Each session typically lasts 50 minutes. Longer sessions for couples can be arranged upon request.
6. Is Counselling confidential?
Yes. Everything you share with your therapist remains private, unless safety concerns require disclosure (which will be discussed with you).
7. How many sessions will I require?
The number of sessions depends on your goals and the progress you make. Some clients benefit from short-term support, while others prefer longer-term work.
8. What is your cancellation policy?
We require at least 24 hours' notice to cancel or reschedule. Late cancellations or missed appointments may be charged at the full rate.
9. I’ve never had counselling before. What can I expect?
You're not alone—many clients are new to counselling. In our first session, we’ll explore what brings you to therapy, what you hope to achieve, and begin building a trusting, non-judgmental relationship.
