FAQ'S
Hopefully I can ease any worries and answer any questions you may have here. Please note I don't currently have any in person availability. I am looking to expand my practice hours and will update the website when I have confirmed my new availability:
​
Is therapy confidential?
​
Yes, except in situations where the safety of yourself or others is at risk. Before we start therapy I will share our contract with you to review and sign. You will have the chance to read through this before confirming any appointments.
​
How long will I be in therapy for?
​
Once we’ve had an initial chat either over the phone or online we will arrange a time to meet for our first session. I will send you some contract paperwork for you to read, sign and return before the first session.
​
The first session will involve us working together to establish what your needs are and what you would like the outcome of our work together to be. To do this I will ask some information about your background and personal history. We will do this as your own pace.
​
How many sessions you’ll need will depend on what you would like to work through. For a single specific issue EMDR usually takes between 9 and 12 sessions. For more complex issues the process will take longer. During our first sessions we’ll make a plan of how we will work together and how long it will take. We will always regularly review your treatment plan and goals.
​
How much will it cost?
​
£80 per 1 hour session
£110 per 90 minute session
​
I do offer some sessions at lower rates so please do contact me to talk this through further if it would be of benefit to you.
​
I do some pro bono work for NHS work Volunteer - Frontline19 . If you are looking for free/low cost options please do contact me for a free consultation I am familiar with NHS and charity services and can signpost you to who might be able to help you.
How do I pay?
​
You can pay by bank transfer (details shared in our contract) or cash before or on the day of our session.
Do you work with insurance companies? Not currently but this is in process.
​
How do I book a session?
​
To make an initial enquiry contact me here (link to contact page) or by phone (including whatsapp) or email
We can either book in a block of sessions or we can book one session at a time, whatever works best for you.
