Psychosynthesis Counselling
50 minute appointment £60
Concessionary rate : The practice has one day-time slot available at a reduced fee of £30 per 50 minute session.
My aim is for you to feel welcome as you are. It’s essential you feel comfortable and safe enough to share what you are experiencing without fear of judgement.
In your first session you’ll be able to share in more detail what has brought you into therapy at this time. We’ll discuss the process of therapy, and what you can expect and begin the process of you sharing your life story – important relationships and events in your life.
Regularity and continuity are important for effective therapy as they provide structure continuity. During our initial meeting we will agree on the day and time of your session and this will be the same each week.
The therapeutic process can be, if you wish, a long-term commitment. I suggest we start with an initial six session period, at the end of that we will evaluate your situation and agree how to continue.
As a registered member of BACP I abide by their Ethical Framework which includes us having a written agreement, regular reviews and supervision of our work together.
