Practice Information
The initial meeting is an opportunity to find out more about you and what has brought you to therapy. Amongst other things, we can discuss what you feel you are struggling with, what you would like to focus on and hope to achieve and also how it feels to talk with me and potentially begin the process of therapy together.
Fees -
- £50 per session for individuals (individual therapy)
- £70 per session for couples (couple counselling)
This can be paid for by cash or cheque at each appointment. The first session is charged at the full rate.
A therapy session lasts for fifty minutes and is normally at the same time every week. I have a 48 hour cancellation policy, otherwise the missed session will have to be paid for in full. There is a cancellation fee of £15 for every cancelled session.
What we talk about in our therapy sessions will remain confidential, the only exception to this would be if I felt there is a serious risk to your own or another person's safety at which point I am required by the ethical codes of practice which I abide by to inform your GP or other relevant agencies. These instances are extremely rare and should they arise I will make every effort to discuss my concerns with you first and any action taken will be with your full knowledge.
