I offer an initial free consultation for you to decide if I will be the right therapist for you. This will usually be via telephone or online. Before I start work with any client I ask them to complete a form so that I can make sure that I fully understand their history. I can then plan safely around what they might need; making sure it is appropriate for them to undertake therapy at this time and signposting on if I don't think my approach will be the best fit.
​
Currently I offer sessions in person from my therapy space in North Cumbria and online. Working online does not suit everyone and as part of our initial conversation we will explore if an online approach is going to be right for you. I occasionally also offer sessions outdoors, although this would be after working inside for a while. I am interested in how we can use the natural environment and seasons to enhance the creative therapeutic process.
My session fee is £60 per hour for those looking for regular one hour sessions. I would recommend that we meet weekly at first, usually for about 6 weeks. If you wish to continue after this time then we could make this less frequent, depending on what you need.
I do however also offer a less regular and more intense way of working where we might have a 2-3 hour intensive creative session, which is useful for getting into depth with issues and these could be every 2-4 weeks, so might suit someone who would struggle with weekly sessions. The hourly rate remains the same, so a 2 hour intensive would be £120. These sessions need to be face to face.
Please call or email me for an initial chat if you are interested.
