Taking the first step
People often tell me that taking the first step, making contact, being heard in a warm & non-judgemental way, is the most valuable decision they have made
How do I start?
My services start with a free 15 minute telephone consultation in which we can touch upon what’s brought you to seek counselling. This phone call can be a good introduction, help us get a feel for if and how we can work together.
And from there we can arrange an initial assessment face-to-face or online
What is the cost?
Initial 15 minute telephone consultation is free
First 90 minute face-to-face or video assessment - £95.00
On-going hourly sessions: (face-to-face or via video) - £75.00
(fees are reviewed annually)
