I think very much make it clear to them that there is no long-term commitment. By coming to one appointment it’s really just gonna be a case of just talking through sort of things in a very non-threatening sort of way. So by coming to it nothing is going to be done to them nothing’s going to… they’re not making any commitment. They’re just coming along to find out a little bit more about what therapy involves. And if they don’t wanna come back after that then there’s no pressure to. So yeah so really just taking that sense of uncertainty away about what it involves and just being clear that it is non-threatening.
