Session timing and frequency
Psychotherapy & Counselling (including help with spiritual issues) usually takes place weekly in a session lasting just under an hour. Occasionally sessions can take place more or less frequently and/or longer sessions can be negotiated in advance.
The initial session
In the initial session I can tell you more about the way I work and you can say what leads you to consider Counselling & Psychotherapy. From this we can decide whether we will work with one another.
Fees
My full fee per session is £50 but reductions can be offered, with clients paying on a sliding scale of £50-£20. Clients should pay as much as they can afford on the £50-20 scale dependent on their own assessment of their disposable income/savings and their essential outgoings/dependents.
Corporate-paid clients will be charged at a higher rate £ 555556£65-60 .
Professional and Ethical Standards
I am a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and the United Kingdom Association for Humanistic Psychology Practitioners (UKAHPP) which is an independent member organisation of the United Kingdom Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP). I am also a member of various other groups providing professional support and networking opportunities.
I work to both the BACP and UKAHPP codes of practice and ethics assuring you of the highest standards of integrity, impartiality and respect (see links below). Our work is confidential (unless life is endangered when I would attempt to discuss any decision to break confidentiality with you beforehand).
