Fees and Payment
The length of your sessions, and how they’re organized, is individualized to what you need, and depends on your method of payment.
Paying per session
Start with a free 15-minute call, so we can talk through what you need. After that, it’s recommended to begin with a 60 minute appointment. The extended 90 minute session remains useful when there’s a lot you want to cover or want to include preparing for EMDR.
Following our first meeting, we can agree what length of session will be most useful to you going forward. We will take into account what feels comfortable to you, therapeutic progress, and your budget. Some people find shorter or longer appointments more helpful.
Payment is in advance, via online invoice, and you will receive this by email with various payment options. There is a 24-hour notice period for cancellation.
If reports, letters, or consultation to other professionals is required, the hourly rate applies.
Private health insurance
Registered with a range of insurers, including AXA and BUPA.
What’s covered, and how, varies depending on your policy, your individual circumstances, and the specific insurer. If you are interested in the intensive format, check with your insurer first.
The best way to find out what’s possible for you is a free 15-minute call.
Package prices
To support you in completing a full course of therapy, you may book a block of hours. (Only for self-funded therapy). There is a discount for booking packages.
3-hour package
6-hour package
9-hour package
12-hour package
How you might arrange your sessions
For example, a 3-hour package could be used as 3 x 60 minutes, 2 x 90 minutes, or 60 minutes plus 2 x 45 minutes and 30 minutes. The discount increases with the number of hours booked. The diagram below gives examples of how people arrange your sessions to suit their needs and availability.
Each block shows the length of a session, in minutes.
Intensives
Therapy is changing. New research shows that, for certain issues, condensing therapy into a few sessions across a week, rather than spreading it over weeks or months, can work as well, if not better.
This can work well for people with one or two recent distressing incidents (trauma), or for a phobia or specific limiting belief.
If you are interested in concentrating your sessions this way, let me know. We will start with one or two meetings to understand the issue and make a plan. If it’s a good fit, we then schedule concentrated time to focus on addressing your concern. You do not need to decide straight away.
