Initial Consultation
We can usually offer you an initial consultation with one of our experienced practitioners within seven days. Consultations can be held by video call or in-person at our offices in Leeds or the West Midlands.
During your one-to-one, one hour consultation you will be supported to talk about your situation. We will explain what could happen during your investigation and what outcomes are possible. If you want to talk about your behaviours, we will allow you time to do that, but the focus is on providing you with immediate support and advice.
We will also discuss next steps and where you can get further help, including your options through our Safer Lives Programmes and support you may want for a partner or family members.
​
The fee for a consultation is £60.
What Our Clients Say About Our Initial Consultations
"My initial consultation with a Safer Lives practitioner was nothing short of life saving. I had been in a very dark place, and my conversation with him was the first time anyone with knowledge and experience in this area had given me any hope that there was a life beyond what was happening at that moment."
​​​
"The consultation came at a time of immense anxiety and distress for me and I didn't feel like I could see a light in front of me. My practitioner was absolutely outstanding from start to finish and almost immediately put me at ease. I will always look back at this period of my life as 'Before Saver Lives' and 'After Safer Lives'. Even if we had only had the initial conversation, it genuinely changed my entire understanding and outlook of the situation I found myself in. Thank you for everything."
