Booking Your First Session at Ember Within

If you’re new to Ember Within, completing an intake form is the first step in booking a one-to-one session. It gives me, Rebs Baigent, a chance to understand what brings you here and what would help you feel comfortable before we meet.

Where we can meet

  • Ember Within at Ripples Allied Health Consultancy offers a clinic setting for individual appointments.

  • Ember Within at Calm the Farm offers outdoor, nature-based sessions in Albion Park. Depending on the session, there may be an opportunity to spend time with the horses. Horse interaction is always optional and depends on their willingness to engage on the day.

  • Ember Within at Nurture Gifts, based in Engadine offers individual appointments on selected dates when I’m visiting the shop.

  • Ember Within Online offers one-to-one sessions via Zoom for services that can be offered remotely.

All sessions are by appointment. If you’re unsure which setting or format suits the work you’d like to do, you’re welcome to ask when you enquire.

Who needs to complete an intake form?

If this is your first individual session with Ember Within, please complete an intake form, whether we’re meeting in person or online. This also applies if we’ve met at a gathering, workshop or expo and you’re now booking a private session.

If you’re already a client and are booking at a different location or moving between in-person and online sessions, let me know when you book. I’ll confirm whether I need any updated information.

Before your appointment is confirmed

Complete the intake form when prompted during online booking. If you request an appointment by email, phone or text, I’ll send you the form separately. Please return it so I can review it and confirm your appointment.

The form gives you space to share relevant health information; accessibility needs and anything you’d like me to keep in mind. It also gives you time to read the practice policies and ask questions before giving consent. Please answer to the best of your knowledge. If you’re unsure how to answer something, you’re welcome to ask me.

Consent continues throughout the session. We’ll talk through what I’m offering, and you can ask questions, pause or decline any part of the session at any time. You can read more about how your information is handled in the Ember Within Privacy Policy.

What to include when you enquire

  • Your full name and preferred contact details

  • The session you’re interested in, if you’ve chosen one

  • Your preferred location or whether you’d like to meet online

  • A brief sense of what you’d like support with, if you’re comfortable sharing

  • A few days or times that suit you

A short enquiry is enough to get started. Please use the intake form for detailed health information and keep text messages for scheduling.

Finding the right fit

I review first-session requests to make sure the service and setting are suitable for what you’re seeking. If I’m unable to offer an appointment, I’ll let you know and, where appropriate, suggest another avenue of support.

If you have questions about the forms, accessibility or what to expect in person or online, please get in touch before booking.
