Common questions

Things people usually want to know first

What to expect
  • Yes. Everything discussed in sessions is confidential.

    The only exception is where there is a legal or safeguarding obligation — for example, if there is a serious risk of harm to you, to someone else, or to a child or vulnerable person. These boundaries are explained clearly at the outset, so expectations are transparent.

    ROCK Relationships is not a crisis or emergency service. If you are in immediate danger or experiencing acute crisis, please contact your GP, emergency services, or the appropriate local support service.

  • It depends on your goals and what you would like to change.

    Some people attend for a focused consultation. Others find that a structured block of 4–6 sessions provides enough space to make meaningful progress. For more complex work, we may continue for longer.

    We agree direction together and review regularly, so the work feels purposeful rather than open-ended.

  • No.

    My role is not to judge or assign blame, but to understand patterns, dynamics, and unmet needs. I work to create a balanced, structured space where both people feel heard and the relationship itself remains the focus.

    It is common to feel nervous about attending counselling. My approach is steady, respectful, and non-judgmental.

  • Yes.

    My practice is trauma-informed and neurodiversity-aware, with extensive experience working across public mental health and relational settings.

    If a situation requires specialist intervention beyond my remit, I will discuss this openly and support appropriate signposting where needed

  • Availability varies, but I aim to offer initial appointments promptly where possible.

    Our first session focuses on understanding your situation, clarifying your goals, and assessing whether working together is appropriate and helpful. From there, we agree a structure that suits your needs.

    Sessions may be weekly or fortnightly and can be delivered in person or online.

  • The first session is an introduction and structured assessment.

    We explore what has brought you here, what feels strained, what you would like to change, and what may be happening beneath the surface. You will leave with greater clarity about direction and next steps.

  • Yes.

    Sessions are available in person in Guernsey and online. Online sessions can be particularly helpful for those travelling or living off-island.

  • No.

    You can attend individually — whether you are single, in a relationship, or your partner is unsure about attending.

    Some people begin alone and later invite their partner. Others attend together and continue individually. The structure can evolve in a way that supports the work safely and constructively.

  • ROCK Relationships combines structured, evidence-based relational principles with practical, real-world skills.

    The work is both reflective and proactive, offering space to explore thoughts and emotions while also developing concrete tools for communication, reconnection, and resilience.

    My background across social care, public mental health, and relational counselling allows me to work with both depth and structure.

  • Fees are discussed during referral processing.

    ROCK Relationships operates a 48-hour cancellation policy. Appointments cancelled with less than 24 hours’ notice may be chargeable. This helps protect the time allocated to you and allows space for others seeking support.

    Full details are provided prior to booking.
