What's Next?
We can have a talk by phone or email to answer any initial queries you might have and to discuss mutual availability.
Our first pre-therapy meeting is an opportunity to talk about your background history, what is going on for you now and to take some practical details.
I will explain how I work, what type of therapy might be appropriate for your needs, and if you would like to proceed, I will provide you with an agreement to explain the boundaries of my work, about how I work with confidentially.
This initial appointment can take between 60-90 minutes.
Our sessions are weekly and last 60 minutes.
I work short term (6-12 weeks) and longer term if that is required and agreed . This would always be reviewed on a regular basis and any changes to our “counselling contract” mutually agreed.
Your regular session time is kept for you for the duration of your counselling with 2 weeks’ notice required for planned breaks. I require full payment for missed appointments unless there are exceptional circumstances.If possible I will endeavour to offer you an alternative for that week.
