For Gestalt Psychotherapy:

You can contact using the contact form (click on this text), or text me or WhatsApp me, in which you can kep the message as brief as 'can we arrange a brief phone call', or 'can i book an introductory session'.

​​​

I work Tuesday, Thursday and Friday; Monday and Wednesday are utilised when needed, like, for a postponed session, or additional session.  Meeting is usually on a weekly basis and the reason is to provide continuity. This is not set in stone and variations can be considered.

I work Face to Face and Online; think about what will work for you.

 

Cost of therapy is £65 per session of 50 minutes duration

The first meeting is introductory and if you find you are not ready, or that working with me is not for you, then there is no cost.

​

What you Can Expect When You Contact Me

1. When you contact me you can tel me as much or as little as you want; "I want therapy" is entirely sufficient; and I will offer you the opportunity to say more.

2. After asking for therapy I will check whether you can meet face to face; if at all possible this might prove most helpful to you, even if any further work is done online.

3. If you have the choice, the decision for online or face to face does not need to be decided at this point

4. I will arrange with you a time for an initial session for you let me know what is going on for you.  This session allows you to also clarify if you want, and feel ready, to explore what is going on for you (sometimes this meeting is the first time a person speaks out their difficullty).

5. This initial session is only paid for if you take up the offer of further therapy sessions.

6. So, if you decide this is not the right time, or I'm not the right person, then we part with best wishes for your journey and no payment is required.
