Session Fees, Payment, Holding & Cancellation Policy

Session Format

Free initial telephone/online consultation

Depending on my availability, sometimes I can offer a free, no-obligation, 20 minutes telephone/online appointment to discuss your needs and therapy goals, and for you to ask any questions you may have so that you can decide whether I am the right counsellor for you. This will also help us to have a basic understanding of how and whether we can work together.


In-person, online & Telephone session

A standard individual session is 50 minutes in length. Couple therapy is normally 60 minutes per session. I normally offer weekly or fortnightly sessions. They can be in person, online or telephone sessions. I also offer longer or shorter session depending on clients' needs.


Initial assessment session

The initial assessment session is 50 minutues, at standard session rate. Part of the assessment process is for me to ask you a series of questions which will help me understand your therapy needs, and you will also be able to ask me any questions about my service and approach. This process will allow us to know what each other's expectations are in the therapeutic relationship and you will get a sense of my approach and how we can work together.
