How much are sessions?
A full 50-minute session is £60, whether you continue straight after the free consultation or book for another time. You'll only be charged if you choose to move beyond the free 15-minute call.
Is there a sliding scale?
Yes — for online therapy I offer a sliding scale of £40 – £60 to support people on lower incomes, students, or anyone who'd find the full fee difficult to manage. You're welcome to choose the rate that feels sustainable.
What happens in the free 15-minute consultation?
It's a relaxed, no-obligation phone or video call. A chance to meet, for you to ask questions, and for us to get a sense of whether working together feels right. There's no formal assessment.
Can we continue straight into a full session?
If you feel ready after the consultation, we can move directly into a full 50-minute session and keep the momentum. Equally, you're welcome to pause, reflect, and book later — whichever suits you.
What will the first session be like?
A gentle, collaborative assessment. We'll explore what's brought you here, what you're hoping for, and how we might work together. We'll also talk through confidentiality, boundaries and what to expect from me.
Do you accept insurance?
At the moment I work on a self-pay basis. If you'd like a receipt to submit to your provider I'm happy to arrange one.
How often would we meet?
Sessions are typically weekly, at the same time each week — this consistency supports meaningful insight and change. Fortnightly is possible in some cases; we'd talk this through together.
Is what I say confidential?
Yes. Our work is strictly confidential and held within the BACP Ethical Framework. The only exceptions relate to serious risk of harm and are explained clearly at the start.
