Each session is 50 minutes long whether this is in person, online or by telephone
Everyone is different and the number of sessions needed is entirely your choice.
Many clients like to have 6 sessions and then review how it is going. Other clients may only need a couple of sessions to help them deal with an immediate problem.
Long term counselling can help a client look more deeply into past traumas or to help them cope with keeping on track with their mental wellbeing. It is a personal choice and a client always has autonomy.
Ideally therapy works best when you come to weekly sessions, especially at the beginning. I understand this may not always be possible so I am able to offer fortnightly appointments.
If you need to cancel a session, please give me 48 hours notice where possible otherwise you will be charged half the full fee. Please either message or email me to let me know.
If you have pre-arranged holiday or appointments please give me as much notice as possible.
My current fee is £35 for online or telephone counselling & £45 for Face-To-Face counselling per 50 min session. (I pay a room rental fee for face to face clients hence the higher charge).
Please pay for your counselling session via bank transfer 24 hours in advance or cash payment on the day.
If this is not possible an alternative payment method can be arranged with you.
Everyone is individual and facing different challenges. You may be at a point in your life where you need someone to offload to, to help you explore what is going on for you.
You could be overwhelmed with anxiety or depression that is affecting your everyday life, and not knowing how to move forward. This could be as a result of current problems or something that has happened in your past that has resurfaced, been triggered or just never resolved.
Coming to counselling is helping you to address what is causing you concern so that you can move forward. It is part of your own self-care.
Please feel free to message me or you can arrange a free 15/20 mins introductory call to see if you would like to have counselling with me.
