FAQ

An initial assessment or subsequent therapy sessions at 50 minutes is from £120. The cost is the same for an online appointment or face to face appointment.

The cost of assessment reports and discharge reports are charged at the hourly rate of £130.

I require payment 48 hours prior to each session, via bank transfer. This is to secure your appointment booking along with the therapy room (where applicable) that we will be using.

The service offered is confidential but should a situation of arise in which I become worried about your safety or that of others, I would have a duty of care to share information accordingly and this would include your GP or Next of Kin. I would always attempt to contact you before doing so to make you aware of the need, and the reasons to break confidentiality.

Please be aware that I cannot work with you if you are unable to provide these details. I do not contact GP's or any other third party about your therapy unless a safety issue arises.

The answer is yes! Research has shown that therapy delivered online is comparable to face to face therapy. Not only does it enable you to see a specialist outside your local area, it saves you time and money because you do not have to travel or find parking. Being seen online means that you can access therapy at a time that suits you from the comfort of your own home or office.

I offer online therapy sessions using a telehealth platform which is free to use and secure.

‍48 hours notice is required for cancellations. No refund will be given for non-attended appointments or those cancelled with less than 48 hours notice, as the psychologist incurs the same costs as if the appointment had taken place and is unable to offer the slot to another client at that late stage.

This depends on whether all of my available appointment times are booked. During a free 15 minute consultation call I can let you know whether I have spaces available. If I do, I should be able to see you within one week.
