Free introductory call – 15 minutes
A first conversation to explore whether my approach is right for you
Service Description
### A first conversation to explore whether my approach is right for you Choosing someone to support you can bring up many questions. This free 15-minute introductory call gives us an opportunity to briefly meet before you book a first session. During the Zoom call, you can tell me what is bringing you here, ask questions and learn more about how I work. I can also explain what psychosocial and body-oriented support involves and whether my approach appears to fit your current needs. This call may be helpful if you are wondering: * whether a body-oriented approach could suit you; * how attention to the body is integrated into our conversations; * whether I can support you with what you are currently experiencing; * what to expect from a first session. You do not need to share your whole story. You can speak only about what feels relevant and comfortable during this short conversation. The call is free, with no obligation, and takes place on Zoom. It is not a therapy session, clinical assessment or emergency service. Languages: English, French, Portuguese or Spanish
