My fees and sessions are based on 1-hour's duration:
I charge £65 for one session but I offer discounts for block sessions.
Discounted fees for block bookings are:
£240 for a block of 4 sessions
£600 for a block of 12 sessions
1-hour (60-minute) sessions:
I used to offer 50 minutes but I found that by offering an hour-long session I can better ensure you're feeling comfortable about the session, and know what to expect at the beginning, and allows me to ensure you'll be ready to move out of the 'safe place' I offer in counselling before entering the world again at the end of the session.
Free 20-minute online consultation:
This provides you with the opportunity to meet me and ask any questions about counselling.
To book your 'free' session you can email [email protected] or phone me on 07726 465229.
How often are sessions?
I recommend weekly sessions - having regular sessions on the same day and time each week, is often the most effective. However, I will discuss fortnightly sessions where necessary.
How many sessions will you need?
The number of sessions needed varies with each individual, and I recommend having at least 8 sessions, as it takes time to build the therapeutic relationship necessary for effective therapy. We will constantly review your progress together and when you feel that you're almost ready to leave counselling, we can decide on how we will draw sessions to a close - this may involve phasing out sessions over a number of weeks, making sessions less frequent as you feel more able to cope alone. An abrupt end is not advisable.
