This page outlines how to get started at Relinquish, what the intake process involves, and general information about fees.
The intention is to offer clarity and transparency, while keeping the process as supportive and low-pressure as possible. If anything here feels unclear, you’re always welcome to reach out and ask.
You can reach out via the contact form, email, or phone. You don’t need to know exactly what to say or have a clear plan — a brief message is enough.
If you’re unsure whether this support is right for you, you’re welcome to start with a gentle, no-obligation conversation.
Once you get in touch, you’ll receive information about availability, fees, and next steps.
There is no preparation required. You don’t need to complete food diaries, tracking apps, or change how you eat before your first session.
The first session is a space to get to know each other and understand what’s brought you here.
There is no weighing, judgement, or pressure. Sessions are collaborative and paced to what feels safe and manageable for you.
The frequency and length of ongoing sessions depend on your needs, preferences, and circumstances.
There is no fixed schedule. Support can be adjusted over time as your needs change.
Fees reflect Louise’s experience, specialist training, and the nature of the support provided.
