Sessions & Fees

How it Works

After I get your enquiry I will contact you (usually the next working day) to arrange a mutually convenient time for an initial FREE 20-minute telephone or zoom conversation. I will talk you through the counselling process and ask you about the issues you are facing and what you want from counselling. It is also an opportunity for you to ask me any questions you have and for you to see if you feel comfortable talking with me. If you decide you want to work collaboratively with me, and I feel I can help you, we can book your Initial Consultation. I offer short to medium as well as long-term counselling.

In Person Counselling Sessions

Face-to-face sessions are held in person at my consultation room in Basingstoke in Hampshire. The building has a lift and my room is wheelchair accessible. It is a modern and comfortable space with refreshments available. Free Visitor parking is available giving easy access from Reading, Fleet, Farnham, Alton, Berkshire and Surrey.

Online Counselling Sessions

Online sessions are an effective and convenient way of undergoing counselling from the comfort of your own home.

Sessions are usually at the same time and day every week which guarantees my availability to you at this regular time.

At the end of every appointment, we confirm the day and time of the following session, and then I will email you the link to our online therapy room for the next session.

First Session

Your first session is a more detailed in-depth consultation, which lasts up to 1 hour 10 minutes (longer than the standard 50-minute session) and costs £85. This is the beginning of our work together, so there is some information gathering in this session to give me an overall bigger picture. We also consider your needs and establish an initial time frame to work together and identify any therapeutic goals, which are reviewed as an ongoing process.

Ongoing Sessions

Length: Regular sessions last up to 50 minutes.

Individual online, telephone & in person counselling costs: £70.00 per 50 minute session.

Payment: Please pay for your session 48 hours in advance via bank transfer.

Cancellation: Please give at least 48 hours notice to cancel booked sessions. If you are unable to attend and give between 48-24 hours notice, the cancellation charge is 50% of the session fee. If you give 24 hours or less notice or do not attend, then the full session fee is charged.

Get in touch

The best way to get in touch is by email, but you can also call me on 07771 346656 if you

would prefer to leave a voice message. Usually we will need to arrange a specific time to

have a confidential phone discussion. I am happy to discuss any queries or questions you

may have prior to arranging an initial appointment.

Enquiries are answered as soon as I can, usually the next working day, and all contact is strictly confidential.
