A Practical First Step When The Answer Feels Just Out Of Reach

Some challenges are easy to think your way through—others aren’t. When the usual strategies don’t seem to work, it’s often because life, stress or overthinking are clouding your natural clarity.

A First-Step Call is a 15-minute conversation designed to help you step back, get a clearer view of what’s happening, and see whether a FAST® Session is the right next step for you. No pressure, no obligation—just a fresh perspective.

What You’ll Get in This Call:

✅ A clearer sense of why things feel stuck right now
✅ Insight into how your mind is working in this moment
✅ A simple next step to help you move forward

If you're ready to pause, refocus, and regain momentum, let’s talk.

What exactly is FAST® Therapy?

I specialise in helping busy, accomplished professionals, leaders, business owners, and solopreneurs who are feeling stretched thin and need a practical way to regain clarity—without the time commitment of ongoing therapy.

FAST® Sessions are a full hour long and booked and paid for via the online booking system. They take place by Zoom video or telephone.

FAST® sessions are a blend of coaching-counselling that helps you in one session, with no presumption of additional sessions.

And many clients do book follow-up sessions as and when they want them.

They are ideal for people who have a specific problem that they want to address quickly and effectively, or who have limited time or access to regular counselling.

In a FAST® session, we will work together to identify your main issue, explore your feelings and thoughts, and find tactics for next steps.

You will also receive a transcript or video recording of the session if you wish (if a Zoom session), to help you remember what was talked about and the steps you decided to take.

FAST® sessions are based on the principle that you have the potential to change and grow, and that you are the expert on your own life.

I offer a supportive, and confidential space for you to express yourself and achieve your goals.

FAST® Therapy helps when you’re feeling stuck, mentally overloaded, or unsure of the way forward—offering clarity and practical solutions for challenges like overthinking, decision-making, and stress.

What clients say:

Well - I can't share what my clients say because our sessions are completely confidential. These are comments that I've made about my FAST® sessions ...

"I feel a weight has been lifted after my session"

"Slightly challenging, yet supportive, and just what I needed"

"I didn't believe that one hour would make any difference ... I was wrong. Turns out it's not about the big stuff, these small adjustments are life-changing"

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

If your question is not covered below, then please email me at alison@agoodplace.co

I'm so overwhelmed ... can you really help

Yes I can help because I believe in you! I help you find your own unique solution.

Taking time out from the situation to gain a different perspective is proven to help us make positive, sustainable changes.

The most important thing is to remember that you are not alone and that you have the power to overcome this challenge. I’m here to listen and support you along the way.

Perhaps you're concerned you might not remember what we discuss and agree. I understand and so your session can be recorded, or you can have a transcript, so that you can revisit at any time.

How quickly can I have a session?

How confidential is working with you - I don't want anyone to know

Completely confidential. Please make sure your are located somewhere comfortable and private, where you cannot be overheard for our session. I do not share details of my clients without their consent ever. If I have concerns about your wellbeing I will discuss these with you and together we will work out next steps

I don't want my session recorded

That's fine ... any recording or transcript is for your use only. I don't keep a copy. Often clients are unsure and we record the session - and at the end it can be deleted immediately. Or we won't record. Your choice.

I need to cancel my session

The cancellation policy is with 2 business-days notice you will receive a full refund.

And life happens, so if an emergency arises then let me know by replying to your confirmation email and I will do my best to reschedule for you.

Can I have more than one 'FAST® Self-Contained' Session?

Yes you can.

FAST® Self-Contained Sessions are designed to offer effective support in one session. However there is nothing to stop you returning for more sessions to check-in or address a different challenge you may have.
