THERAPY

Successful outcomes rely on both you as the client and the Therapist working together – this includes your commitment and motivation for change to achieve outcomes and your ‘opt-in’ for the self-work involved and on time attendance to booked sessions..

You accept that treatment is offered on the basis of the information you supply, which you represent and warrant to be complete and truthful.

Ongoing sessions will always be discussed with you and you will have the right to express your preferences regarding your treatment plan and timeframe.

You are free to end or withdraw from therapy at any time. The cost of any sessions paid for in advance but not used will be refunded on request, subject to my cancellation policy. Refunds will reflect the actual price paid if special offers have been used.

SESSIONS

Your therapy session will last approximately 60-90 minutes. Please allow yourself enough time for this.  For In Person consultations, please be aware there is no waiting area for clients to arrive early or await for pick up after their session.

For both Online and In Person consultations,  If you are running late, please let us know as soon as possible.  We will do our best to make a full session available, but this often depends on appointments following your booking and so cannot be guaranteed.
