All one to one services have a single session fee and concessions for block bookings.

Coaching sessions cost £120 to £225 per 60-minute session.
I require 48 hours’ notice to change or cancel an appointment; otherwise, full payment is due.
How will I know if you’re the right person for me?
Finding the right therapist and coach that ‘fits’ you is essential. I offer a free 30-minute introductory online session via Zoom. This gives you a chance to talk about your difficulties, ask any questions you may have and work out for yourself what you want to do next. I can also assess if I have the right skills to support you.
How do I know you are qualified and safe to work with me?
I’m a qualified therapist: I have a Diploma in Psychotherapy, a Diploma in Personal Development Coaching and a Degree in Criminology and Psychology from the University of Liverpool.
I am committed to good practice. I am a registered member of the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society. As recommended by my regulatory body, I engage in regular supervision with a Clinical Psychologist, as well as continuing professional development and I abide by their ethical codes.
I’m fully insured and hold an enhanced DBS certificate.
How do I arrange an appointment with you?
Fill in an enquiry firm. I will respond within 24 hours, providing my availability.
You choose the best time and date got you to have your initial free 30 minutes Introductory session. I send an email confirmation with your Zoom link. At the end of your Introductory session, if you choose to schedule in sessions we book them then, a payment link with confirmation is sent to you. When we have our initial online session, we will discuss the timings of our ongoing appointments. I offer appointments between 8.30am and 6.30pm Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays.
How many sessions will I need?
This varies from person to person. It depends on what you bring. I offer both short (6 weeks to 6 months) and long-term therapy (6 months to a year, or several years).
I usually suggest to people that if you choose to work with me, let’s agree to work together for six sessions in the first instance. At that 6th session, we can review our work together and decide what happens next.
I feel better so how do we finish?
This is up to you, as we work together we will always be talking about and reflecting on your progress. Ideally, when it’s time, we can talk about how we end our work together. This can be by agreeing to end after a particular number of sessions.
Another option is to reduce the frequency of our work together.
How often do my sessions need to be?
For Counselling I recommend weekly or fortnightly sessions reducing to monthly sessions as we move towards ending our work together.
For Coaching I recommend fortnightly or monthly sessions, reducing to quarterly sessions as we move towards ending our work together.
Where do you work?
I work online using Zoom.
For coaching sessions we can negotiate sessions at your place of work or a venue of your choice. Please be aware due to travel this may incur additional costs.
What about Confidentiality?
I take your confidentiality very seriously, and this will be discussed at our first meeting.
How do we communicate in between sessions?
For counselling you can contact me via email.
