Frequently Asked Questions

The terms Counselling and Psychotherapy are largely interchangeable, although generally speaking, Counselling is considered to be short-term (6-8 weeks), and Psychotherapy to be longer-term therapy (12 weeks and more).  We provide an integrated approach, which means that the work can be flexible to meet your needs and to support you in the changes you'd like to make.

 The cost per session depends on the type of session booked. For Individual Counselling the cost is £70 for 60 minutes, and for Couples Counselling the cost is £80 for 60 minutes. Supervision is a bespoke offering so please contact us to discuss your requirements and pricing.  

  Sessions can be provided Face to Face in our peaceful Garden Room, or by Webcam or Phone  

The effectiveness of counselling can depend on lots of different factors: Your engagement in the process; the type of counselling you access; whether the time is right for you to make the change. Research shows that counselling tends to be more effective when you have a good therapeutic relationship with your counsellor.
