Frequently Asked Questions

How long are counselling sessions?
Counselling sessions typically last 50 minutes, but the duration can be adjusted based on your needs and preferences.

Do you offer online counselling services?

Yes, I offer online counselling services for clients who prefer remote sessions or are unable to attend in person.

What can I expect from my complimentary 20 minute introductory session?

During your complimentary 20 minute introductory session, you’ll share what’s brought you to seek counselling; learn how we’ll work together; and we’ll start building trust in a relaxed, pressure-free setting. You’ll also have the opportunity to ask any questions—about confidentiality, duration, approach—and decide if you feel comfortable moving forward. This initial session gives you space to feel safe and informed before committing to fuller therapy. 

How many sessions do I need to book?

This is your choice. Whether you’re not sure how long you’ll need counselling or you want ongoing support, I'm flexible. You can book one or two sessions at a time—whatever suits your schedule, with no minimum commitment. And if you're planning to come long-term, that’s great too—we’ll simply reserve a regular slot just for you. 

How much does it cost?

My standard fee is £45 per session. To help make counselling more accessible, I offer a limited number of concessionary sessions. If cost is a concern, please don’t hesitate to ask - I’m happy to discuss what’s possible.
