FAQ

How do I make an appointment?

You are welcome to contact me by phone, email or via the contact form on my website. If you go through to my voicemail when calling, please leave a message with your name and best contact number and I will call you back. I will respond to phone, emails and contact form messages by the next working day. We can then arrange 15 minute phone call where you can ask me any questions you may have and I can get an understanding of how I can support your needs. From there, we would book in an initial session.

How much are session fees?

Sessions are £50 a week for a 50 minute session and are payable in advance by bank transfer.

Is counselling confidential?

What you say in counselling is confidential and what we discuss stays between us. However, there are a few exceptions to this, which I will go through during our first meeting.

Do you work in the evening?

Yes, I offer sessions Monday to Thursday between 8am and 7pm, with the last session starting at 6pm.

How many sessions will I need?

This is individual to you and your circumstances. We can discuss in your initial session what you want to get out of therapy and then agree together whether we work towards a set number of sessions or work on an open-ended basis. We will review our work together at pre-agreed dates throughout your time in therapy.

What are my options for counselling with the restrictions around COVID-19?

I appreciate people have different concerns and needs during this time and am continuing to offer both face to face and online sessions. Online sessions are via Zoom. For those who prefer to meet in person, I am offering face to face sessions at my private practice. I follow the appropriate guidelines to ensure my practice is COVID-secure including social distancing and sanitising policies.

How does online counselling work?

I use the platform Zoom for online video sessions. Before the session I will email you a link to a password secure room. Simply click on the link to gain access to the session. You do not need to have a Zoom account. Here is a short video with further information on how to join a Zoom meeting:
