WHAT TO EXPECT
Frequently Asked Questions
Beginning counselling is a meaningful step, and it's normal to have questions or uncertainties along the way. Many people wonder whether counselling is right for them, feel nervous about reaching out, or worry about what to expect. In reality, seeking support is a sign of self-awareness and strength, not weakness.
Counselling provides a safe, non-judgmental space to explore challenges, gain insight, and develop new ways of coping and growing. Many people notice a sense of relief simply from making the decision to reach out, while others begin experiencing positive changes within the first few sessions. Depending on your goals and circumstances, counselling may be helpful for a short period of focused support or as part of an ongoing process of healing, personal growth, and self-discovery.
What Clients Are Saying
The counselling relationship is built on trust, compassion, and connection. I'm honoured to have been part of these clients' journeys.
REVIEWS
"Franya has been an invaluable support as I recover from autistic burnout and depression, as well as a source of hope as I process my queer identity. It is truly life changing to work with a Clinical Counsellor who embodies empathy, resilience, self care, and strong boundaries."
