FAQs

Some questions I am often asked

How do I know if therapy is right for me?

If life feels stuck, heavy, or confusing – or you just sense something needs to shift – therapy can help. You don’t have to be in crisis to start. Curiosity about yourself is enough.

What happens in the first session?

It’s simply a space to talk about what’s going on and what you’re hoping for. You’ll get a feel for how I work, and we’ll see if it feels like a good fit. There’s no pressure to continue if it doesn’t.

How long are sessions, and how often do we meet?

Sessions last 50 minutes. Ideally we will meet weekly for us to create a rhythm, which helps build trust and flow, but we can review as we go. I’m happy to discuss alternate frequencies to best acommadate your circumstances.

How long will I need therapy for?

There’s no set timeline. Some people come for short-term, a few weeks, a few months, others for longer. We’ll keep checking in on what feels useful and whether it’s time to wind down or go deeper.

Do you work online?

Yes. All sessions take place online via Zoom. Most clients find it just as personal and much more flexible than travelling to a room each week.

Is therapy confidential?

Yes. What we talk about stays between us, with a few legal exceptions I’ll explain clearly in our first meeting.

What if I’ve had therapy before and it didn’t help?

That’s okay – finding the right therapist matters. If you’d like, we can talk about what didn’t feel right last time so we can work in a way that does.

Do you work with couples?

Yes, I work with couples.

What kinds of issues do you work with?

I work with a wide range of experiences including shame, self-esteem, addiction, sexuality, identity, and relationship patterns. You can read more about these on my Specialisms page.

What are your fees and how do I pay?

Sessions for individuals are £85 for 50 minutes and £110 for couples for a 65 minute session. Payments are to be made by bank transfer.

What if I need to cancel?

I ask for two business days (Monday to Friday) notice of cancellation/changes so that you avoid forfeiting full payment for the session. Please be assured that I will do my upmost to try to find an alternative time to meet and I have enough notice, so that you do not forfeit payment.

Your first step

Finding a therapist you feel at ease with is one of the most important parts of starting therapy. I offer a short introductory call so we can get a sense of each other and you can ask any questions about the process, before deciding on booking an initial session.
