“The moment a child is born, the mother is also born. She never existed before. The woman existed, but the mother, never. A mother is something absolutely new.”
Osho
The hardest part of getting help is reaching out. Many women are afraid of what might happen if they share those deep, dark thoughts they have late at night or when the baby just won’t stop crying. My first goal with any new client is symptom relief so you can get back to being the type of parent and person you truly are. I want to understand how bad you are feeling and help calm those thoughts.
What Will Happen During Our First Session?
Our first meeting will include filling out some paperwork so we can get to know each other better. The number one predicter of positive outcomes in counselling is a good relationship with your practitioner. This first meeting will allow you to understand my approach but most importantly will give you the chance to be heard. We will discuss any fears you have about attending therapy and what I do with the information you provide.
In order to ensure we have enough time to establish our goals, our first meeting will be scheduled for 90 minutes but billed as a 60-minute session.
I offer free, no commitment consultations by phone to answer any questions you may have and to help you decide if Firefly Counselling is the right fit for you and your family.
