What are the sessions like?
I work in weekly 50-minute sessions with clients, either online or in a quiet room at Shirehampton Public Hall.
I work in a person-centred way. This means:
- We work at the pace you want to go, there is no pressure to talk about issues you don’t feel ready to address yet.
- You are the expert in your own experience, I’m not going to tell you what’s happening in your unconscious.
- What we talk about is up to you.
- There are no worksheets or homework (unless you want to bring something).
I usually start by asking you how you are doing, and what you would like to give some focus to in today’s session together. In our first session, we will discuss the therapy contract, what you would like to get out of our work together, and your previous experience and how that informs how you would like to work together.
Fees
My fees are:
- £40 per session for online work
- £50 per session for in-person work (this covers the additional cost of room hire)
If you cancel or need to reschedule there is no charge as long as you are able to give me at least 24 hours notice.
Online work
If we work together online then I work with Google Meet, which is a secure video service.
If you don’t want to be on camera then you can turn off your video camera, but you will still be able to see me. Alternatively, we could work by telephone.
If we are working online (or by phone) then you must have a quiet place to talk, where you feel comfortable expressing your feelings.
Current availability
I currently have availability on Monday mornings, Monday evenings (for online clients), Wednesday and Friday afternoons.
