I offer an initial free 20 minute consultation (online or by phone) so that we can discuss what brings you to me and what you want to achieve. This also gives us an opportunity to talk to ensure we can build a relationship that we are both comfortable with. After this call, you can take time to decide if you would like to continue.
I offer sessions via Zoom and in-person at my office in Bury St Edmunds.
My sessions are weekly or fortnightly, which we can agree at our first session. We will also discuss the number of sessions – there is no set number as each client is different – and we will regularly review progress. Sessions can be during weekdays or evenings and last for 50 minutes.
The process of counselling is reflective and thought provoking – sometimes clients find themselves struggling with any memories or emotions that might arise. Please ensure that you are taking care of yourself during this time and if you have any concerns, talk to your friends and family or visit your GP.
Fees:
Sessions are between £60-£95 (depending on age, circumstances and referral route)
Please note that my minimum age for working with young people is 8 years old.
