If you’re reading this, you’ve probably been offered a discovery call. This is a short, one-off conversation so we can see whether working together feels like a good fit. Below is a brief outline of what the call is and what happens next.
“Meeting someone for the first time can be a bit nerve-wracking for both of us. I find it easier when someone has already had a look around, has a sense that my approach might be right for them, and is genuinely curious about working together.”
I'm AyhanUKCP full clinical psychotherapist
What happens during a discovery call?
The discovery call is free and usually lasts around 20 to 30 minutes. During the call, we usually:
- Get to know each other a little
- Talk about what you’re hoping to work on
- Look briefly at what has or has not helped before
- Go through practical details, such as structure and possible start dates
- Make space for any questions
If you miss the session, I’m not able to offer another appointment.
What happens after the call?
After the call, I take some time to reflect on whether I’m able to offer the right support. I’ll let you know my decision by email within 24 hours. You then have a week to let me know whether you’d like to go ahead.
- If you decide to accept the offer, you’ve completed Step 2.
- I’ll then send you the intake form to complete.
If I don’t hear from you within a week, I’ll assume that therapy with me is not the right step for you at this time.
Please review my credentials, training and fees to see if I might be a good fit for you. If you’d like to explore working together, you can arrange a free video call via my contact form.
