Fees for Counselling and Therapy

First Session Information

The first session is an opportunity for you to see if I’m the right fit for you, There is no commitment to continue after this session. During your initial meeting (fee applies), we will discuss your goals and concerns. It’s also a chance for you to experience the therapeutic approach I take, and ask any questions you may have.

If, after this appointment, you feel that I’m not the right fit for your needs, there’s no pressure to continue. I aim to ensure you feel comfortable and supported, whether with me or another therapist who might better suit your preferences.

I am aware that life can be unpredictable and there might be times when you need to rearrange or cancel one of your sessions. If possible, I asked that you give me at least 48 hours notice, so I’m able to offer that appointment to someone else. The cancellation policy is:

  • More than 48 hours' notice: No charge.

  • Less than 48 hours' notice but more than 24 hours: £30 charge.

  • Less than 24 hours' notice: Full session fee will be charged.
