Getting started
Welcome to Your Therapy Journey
Taking the first step towards therapy can feel daunting, but it’s also a brave and positive decision. To help you feel more at ease, here’s what to expect when you choose to begin therapy with me.
Your First Appointment: The Assessment
Our work together starts with a 50-minute assessment session. This is a collaborative process where we explore:
- What has brought you to therapy at this time.
- How these challenges are currently affecting you.
- Whether this approach to therapy is the most suitable for your needs.
If we decide that another form of support might be more appropriate, I will guide you on the next steps. This initial session is also an opportunity for us to ensure we feel comfortable working together.
A Safe and Supportive Environment
My approach prioritises creating a safe, confidential, and non-judgmental space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings. Therapy is about encouraging emotional growth, resolving difficulties, and making meaningful changes that lead to a more fulfilling life.
Fees and Practicalities
- Session fee: £120 per 50-minute session.
- Cancellations: If you miss a session, the full fee applies, as your time is reserved exclusively for you.
- Holidays: I provide plenty of notice for any planned breaks, and there is no charge for sessions missed due to my unavailability.
A Path Towards Understanding and Change
Therapy can help you achieve a deeper understanding of yourself, improve self-awareness, and work towards resolving the difficulties you face. I am here to guide and support you every step of the way.
If you’re ready to take the next step, I invite you to make an appointment. Together, we can work towards the changes you seek.
