How do I decide whether this is right for me?

Send me a message for a remote consultation, free of charge. This will last up to 50 mins, during which I will ask for some background and we will discuss your reasons for pursuing therapy. I work in an open-ended way, which means I will not determine how long we might need to see each other, but we will agree to the frequency of sessions.

Where are you?

I see patients remotely, or from a consulting room in Highbury / Islington.

How much does it cost?

My rate is £40 a session. A session lasts 50 minutes. I kindly request advance notice of any holidays you plan to take. If you need to cancel a session outside of 24 hours’ notice, I will offer you an alternative date if I am able. If you need to cancel within 24 hours, you will be invoiced for the missed session. I send invoices monthly, and accept cash and bank transfer.

How often should I have sessions?

I see patients at least once a week and offer a reduced rate for patients who want 3+ weekly sessions on an income basis. Once or twice a week is a common frequency for psychotherapy, allowing for meaningful work to occur. It really depends on your schedule and what you want from the treatment. You are welcome to begin at one session weekly and review at a later date.

Confidentiality

Unless you request otherwise, I conduct remote sessions on the phone and on Doxy. Information you share with me in sessions is confidential. I will only release patient information to a third party in the event of a court order. I keep personal data secure to the best of my ability for no more than three years, in compliance with UK GDPR. You have the right to specify the means by which I communicate scheduling information with you.
