CONTACT INFORMATION & HOW TO GET STARTED
I appreciate it is a big step to reach out for help and it can feel very vulnerable.
To get started, I offer a free phone conversation to help you and I explore if my services might be a good fit. During this call, I meet you withrespect, compassion, and a non-judgmentaldemeanour.
Tobook a free phone consult or to simply ask questions,you can get in touch with me by calling or emailing at:
Tel: 343-549-2886
Email: Laura@groundingcourage.ca
Sessions are by appointment only.
Becoming a client: Please note, booking an initial phone consultation/discovery call does not constitute becoming a client. It is only after reviewing and completing the informed consent forms with Laura Peters-McNeil, MSW, RSW and collaboratively agreeing to work together, that one would become a client.
Please be mindful of what you decide to share over telephone/voicemail and email as these means of communication have their inherent limitations regarding confidentiality and security.
Limits of confidentiality (standard to therapy) will be reviewed with you at a later time should you decide to go ahead with therapy.
Thank you for considering my practice.
Kindly,
Laura
