Frequently Asked Questions

No, it is not necessary to be referred by a GP for psychotherapy/counselling and many of my clients are self-referred or referred by friends/family or current clients. To book an appointment, please go to the contact page and send an email, or ring me to arrange.

Each session lasts for 50 minutes, although the first session is usually longer in order to conduct an assessment. Sessions are normally agreed for the same time/day each week, although I offer a flexible arrangement to accommodate clients’ professional schedules. I also offer psychotherapy/counselling sessions using SKYPE.

Therapy can be short or long-term, depending on your particular circumstances. Each session is unique and it is up to you what you would like to bring. You can expect to be treated with compassion, respect and understanding and develop:

• perspectives to highlight persistent patterns and negative feelings
• strategies for enacting positive change
• effective and proven techniques along with practical guidance
