Fees
If you are thinking about counselling I recommend an initial session to explore whether it
would be beneficial for you at this time in your life, and whether I am the right
person for you to work with.
Initial Session
Free for a one hour session.
Adults
£50 per 50 minute session. I offer some negotiable rates for students, nurses and those on low income, usually during the day, but please ask if this applies to you.
Young People
Session lengths vary for young people according to their age and state of development.
Generally I find 40 minutes is more appropriate for children aged up to 12.
Contract
During your initial session we will talk about what you would like to work on in therapy, and how long you would like therapy to last. I've found that six weeks is usually the shortest length, as it will take us a week or two to get to know each other. Brief therapy is most effective when you have one area or issue you wish to work with. I am happy to work longer and find twelve weeks is the average length, but duration will be up to you.
We will usually meet at the same time each week for 50mins but we can work round this if you do shift work.
I don't charge for sessions that are cancelled 24 hours in advance and will try and find an alternative slot for that week if possible. If you are unable to give 24 hours notice I charge a £25 cancellation fee.
