Frequently Asked Questions
I work face to face and online, primarily using Zoom and FaceTime platforms
Fees
I charge £65 per session for individuals and sessions last for 50 minutes.
The fee for couples is £80 and sessions last for one hour, with frequency agreed at the first session.
Most clients work weekly, at least at the beginning of therapy, but I do have some availability for fortnightly therapy. If you would prefer to work fortnightly, payment for the 2 sessions per month will be at the beginning of each month.
I offer an initial 20 minute telephone call, free of charge, and if we feel that working together would be in your best interests, we can arrange to meet. Our first meeting will involve a more detailed assessment, including our suitability to work together. It is important for you to have the opportunity to decide whether you would be comfortable working with me, and for me to assess whether I am the best person to help you. If we decide to begin counselling, we will agree whether to work online, face to face or a hybrid of both. During our first meeting we will also agree a contract of working, which will include details of the frequency of sessions, procedures on confidentiality, data protection and so on.
I require 72 hour notice for cancellations, without which the session fee is payable.
