Fees and practicalities
Sessions : online videocall for 60 minutes
Frequency: Usually fortnightly so you have time to reflect and try out small changes between sessions.
Fee: £70 per session payable in advance by bank transfer
Length of work: Many clients find six sessions helpful. We'll agree an initial number of sessions and review together as we go.
Note for existing/returning "counselling " clients
Subject to availability, I continue to offer psychotherapy for clients already in ongoing therapy with me or who have worked with me in the past.
I started working online several years ago as I feel it is an effective and convenient mode for my clients who live all over the UK. Advantages include:
- You can be anywhere so long as it is a confidential space, you are stationary, you have good internet connection and are reasonably comfortable using internet technology.
- Easier to fit in around work
- Useful if you travel a lot.
- No travel time or worrying about parking
- More convenient if you have mobility problems
- No worries about being seen entering a clinic!
The platform I use is 'whereby' which is very straightforward to use.
