Fees
My current fee is £40 for a 50 minute session. I have some places at a reduced rate - availability is limited, but please feel free to inquire.
Terms and Conditions
Payment is by cash, cheque, or bank transfer for each session. I can provide itemised receipts.
Cancellation: I require 24 hours notice if you cancel a session, otherwise you are liable for the fee.
Ending: Where our work continues beyond twelve sessions, I ask that you give four sessions’ notice before ending, to give us a chance for proper closure and to review our work.
Confidentiality
Our sessions are strictly confidential, except in the following cases:
- I will discuss my work with my supervisor
- If I believe you are at risk of harming yourself or others, I reserve the right to break confidentiality in order to prevent harm. I would only do this in extreme circumstances and would always try to discuss it with you first.
- If I have a legal obligation
Supervision, safety and insurance
I have regular meetings with a supervisor who oversees my therapy work. This is standard professional practice and helps me to work as well as I can with you. My supervisor is bound by the same code of ethics and confidentiality as myself.
I adhere to the UK Council for Psychotherapy Code of Practice for psychotherapists (www.ukcp.org.uk). I have full professional indemnity insurance.
