Fiona Malek Counselling
“ When we can talk about our feelings, they become less overwhelming, less upsetting, and less scary. The people we trust with that important talk can help us know that we are not alone.”
Fred Rogers

THERAPY AND COUNSELLING SESSIONS
In the first session we will discuss what you hope to gain from our counselling sessions and some of your history and current circumstances as background. This is also an opportunity for you to ask any questions about my approach and the counselling process.
Whether you have a specific issue you wish to address in a few sessions or are looking for longer-term support, we can collaboratively work on a treatment plan that suits your needs.
