BOOKING A SESSION

Booking a Session

Initial session

It is really important that you feel comfortable with me before committing to counselling so I offer an initial session, at no cost, for us to meet, to talk about what has brought you to counselling, what you are hoping to gain from counselling and for you to see whether we ‘fit’.

The session will be at your pace and you will be able to ask questions about how I work and anything else you would like to know. There is no pressure or obligation to continue after this session, the choice remains with you.

I will understand if you feel I am not the right counsellor for you. If this is the case, or if I am not qualified to work with you, I am happy to recommend other suitable practitioners in the area.

It is really important that you feel comfortable with me before committing to counselling so I offer an initial 30 minute telephone call at no cost, for us to talk about what has brought you to counselling, what you are hoping to gain from counselling and for you to see whether we ‘fit’.

You will be able to ask questions about how I work and anything else you would like to know. There is no pressure or obligation to continue after this call, the choice remains with you.

Where?

I work face to face and online and on the telephone. I see clients in my counselling room in the centre of Stroud town. This is easily accessible by car, train or bus. Parking is available in town and the bus and train stations are a short walk from my room.

How much?

A 50 minute session costs £50. However for those on low income I have some spaces at a lower rate, please ask. I offer a reduced fee for student counsellors.

When?

I offer appointments during the day with some availability in the evenings.
