Bookings & Fees
Booking an appointment
It is not always easy deciding to see a psychologist or a therapist. I know from my own past experiences that it can bring out a sense of vulnerability and anxiety that we may not really understand. In the midst of this, it can be useful to remember that working on our psychological wellbeing can be one of the most beneficial and compassionate things that we can do for ourselves and others. This can also positively affect every aspect of our lives and give us a good foundation to meet life's challenges.
To book an appointment, please call on 07340 34 4722. Please leave a message if I am not available and I will call you back usually within one working day. If I call you back and you are not available, any message I leave will be discreet.
When you first contact me, it is useful to have a free telephone conversation (10 - 15 minutes) to get a sense of the difficulties you may be experiencing and briefly discuss how I may be able to help. After this, if you feel comfortable we can arrange a suitable date and time for an initial psychological assessment in order to explore the difficulties and your goals in more detail. This will also give you a chance to ask me any question that you may have. At the end of the assessment, I will share with you my understanding of what we have explored together and suggest how therapy can help.
Fees
I offer an initial psychological assessment for £85 for an hour. This gives both of us a chance to try to get a sense of what is going on for you, and to see how and if psychological therapy can help.
After the initial assessment, if you feel comfortable, the fee for each therapy session is £85 per hour. Each session will last for an hour.
Skype sessions are available for £85 per hour.
Concession rates are available to students and therapists in training.
Payment by cash, cheque and bank transfer is accepted.
No payment is required for appointments which are cancelled 24 hours before the appointment time. Cancellation made on the same day will be charged at 50% of the full fee.
Missed appointments without any notice given, are charged at the full rate.
