What to Expect in Your Initial Call
Our first conversation is designed to be a calm and straightforward chat. It's an opportunity for you to briefly discuss what brings you here and what you hope to gain from therapy. You can also ask any practical questions you have about the process or how we work.
Please remember, this meeting is not a therapy session. Instead, it's a chance for you to get a clear sense of how our work is structured, ensuring you feel informed before taking any next steps.

A 10-15 minute intro call is available to get a sense of Mettle and ask questions. Times are set aside daily, excluding Mondays, between 09:00 and 11:00 for new enquiries.
Free calls are not therapy sessions. Calls are held via Teams (link sent to your email to connect via your preferred device) or we can talk by phone.
