Services…
If you think you may like to work with me then begin by filling in a contact form with your details. From there we can organise a time that is convenient for both of us to have an initial free, 20-minute consultation.
At the end of our chat, if you decide you would like to, we would look to book in two 50-minute assessment sessions in which we would begin to explore what brings you to therapy in more depth and see if the psychodynamic approach is the right one for you.
After these two sessions, we would then look to allocate the same time every week to have a 50-minute session on an open ended basis.
If you would like to know more about each of these steps then take a look at the sections below. Ready to get started? Get in touch now.
Types of Session
Consultation…
20-minutes, one off session
Free
This free, 20-minute consultation will be a first point of contact; it will allow us time to get to know each other a little and for me to hear briefly what brings you to therapy. I will explain a little bit about myself and the psychodynamic approach and, if you are interested, we can discuss availability and arrange a time to meet that suits us both. This consultation will take place on the phone or online, whichever works best for you, just let me know on your contact form.
Assessment Sessions…
50-minutes, two sessions
£65 online, £65 in-person (Petersfield), £75 in person (London) per session
Assessment sessions are 50-minute sessions charged as above in which we will explore in more depth why you have come to therapy and whether or not I am the right therapist for you. If I’m not, don’t worry, there will be someone out there for you!
In these two sessions, which will happen at the same time on the same day for two consecutive weeks, we will talk in more detail about your background. I will ask questions and together we can begin to explore what you are hoping to get out of therapy. It is a time for you to experience a taste of what therapy with me may be like and for you to decide if it is right for you.
At the end of the first session I will give you my client contract for you to read over the week break and then we can discuss it the following week. If you decide you would like to work with me then I will ask you to sign it at the end of the second session ahead of us beginning weekly therapy together.
If you decide to do the assessment sessions then I would encourage you to do both before making your decision as first sessions can bring up a lot and it is useful to come back so those feelings can be processed together. However, if you complete the first one and decide it is not right for you, you will not be expected to pay for the second session.
Therapy Sessions…
50-minutes, open ended therapy
£65 online, £65 in-person (Petersfield), £75 in person (London) per session
Once we have completed the assessment sessions and have decided to work together, we would commence weekly therapy. The content of these sessions is up to you; you can bring whatever it is you would like to talk about that week and I will be there to listen, engage and help you to work out what it means to you. I will help you to identify patterns, themes and links to your past experiences, with the aim to understanding yourself better.
Sessions can be online or in-person in Petersfield or London. I do offer hybrid therapy but I encourage those new to therapy to choose one mode to begin with to offer some consistency to our sessions. If you needed to do a one-off session online or wanted to do one in person, we could discuss this in a session.
Each week we will aim to meet at the same time, in the same place, on the same day. If you are unable to attend at the same time each week due to shift work or for other reasons then we could discuss this during our consultation session.
We would commence our therapy sessions together on an open-ended basis.
