Sessions and fees

The standard ‘therapeutic hour’ is 50 minutes, normally once a week at the same time. If your schedule does not allow this, I am happy to work on an ad hoc basis, but then I require at least two weeks notice of times. My ‘headline' rate is £80 an hour. For new clients, I offer a reduced rate of £20 for an initial assessment session.  I also offer long-term reduced rates to clients who are out of work or on reduced income. I typically take fees by bank deposit, but can make arrangements for PayPal or cash. Please inquire for further details around any of this.  

I work in an open-ended way, meaning that we can continue meeting for as long as you are finding our sessions helpful. However, we can also begin by committing to a fixed number of sessions and then reassessing. I take several multi-week breaks throughout the year to fulfill other commitments or simply take time off, which of course are scheduled well in advance. I find that frequent breaks can be useful for both parties to reflect on progress and reset priorities, but we can discuss whether this works for you in particular.

I offer clients the choice between meeting in person and online sessions via Zoom. I am also happy to offer more than one session a week, particularly for shorter term work. If anything like this interests you, please let me know in your opening email.
