Getting started is easy.
Free Assessment Session
I offer a free assessment session to discuss your needs and decide whether we would like to work together. This will give us a chance to meet each other to see if we would be a right fit without any obligation to continue.
As well as in-person sessions, I am also offering my counselling services online or over the phone, whichever suits your needs. If you prefer the online option, sessions will take place through video call over Zoom.
What to expect in your first session
In this initial session, I will ask you questions about your family history, lifestyle, and your health in general. We will discuss what has brought you to counselling and what you would like to get out of your sessions. You may not be completely sure about your counselling goals and this is fine. We can explore together and revisit any areas that you may want to focus on further at any time. Sometimes we feel overwhelmed or anxious but we are unsure what exactly is going on with our feelings. As we start processing our feelings and reduce their intensity, we can come to an understanding of our triggers.
Scheduling and Fees
If we decide to work together, I offer individual Counselling sessions on the following basis:
Once a week, at a regular time slot
Therapeutic hour is commonly known to be 50 minutes; I offer a full hour session for individuals.
My fee is £55 per session (for 60 minutes)
I invoice the fees at the end of the month. I charge the full fee for absences, cancellations and missed appointments where I am given less than 48-hours notice
I give plenty of notice of the breaks I plan to take and any changes to them.
