FAQ

What if I don't know what kind of therapy I need?

That's no problem, I will work with you and suggest various approaches that we can try. It's often better to come with an open mind and try different techniques to see what works for you.

How many sessions will I need?

There is no prescriptive number of sessions for any particular issue. You may find that a single session gets you to a place where you can take things forwards yourself, you may decide to try four or six sessions to see if there is a difference in how you feel or you may decide that for you, long term psychotherapy is the most appropriate. You can decide how many sessions you want and simply end therapy when you feel you have improved enough. If I don't feel that any more changes are happening I may ask you to consider ending therapy or at least taking a break for a while.

How do I pay the fee?

Fees are payable at least 24 hours in advance of the session via bank transfer. I will provide the banking details when you book your first appointment. I also accept cash at the session for those who do not do online banking.

What if I have to cancel a session?

As long as I have at least 48 hours notice of cancellation there is no charge. If you miss the appointment or cancel with less than 24 hours then the session fee is still payable.

What if I'm late?

I will still see you if you are late for your appointment but we will still have to finish at the allotted time so as not to impact on other clients.

Can I bring a friend?

You can bring a friend with you but they won't be allowed in the therapy room as this is confidential.
