THE HELP CENTER
WHAT ARE YOUR FEES?
Investing in yourself through counseling is a transformative, and I firmly believe it should be accessible to everyone! I’m excited to offer an initial intake session for just £25 with follow-up sessions at £50 for a full hour of support. I know that can be out of reach for many, which is why I’m thrilled to a limited number of low-cost spots for those facing financial challenges. Reach out to me for more details – I’m here to help!
WHAT IS COUNSELLING?
Many of us are navigating through challenges or grappling with aspects of our past. While friends offer their support and good intentions, they might not always truly understand us or provide the insights we need. That's where a counsellor comes in! They are specially trained to listen in way that helps you piece things together and gain clarity. It's not about quick fixes or simple advice, but if you're ready and committed, this journey can be both transformative and empowering. The very fact that you're reading this shows that you're taking that courageous first step.
WHAT ABOUT CANCELLATIONS?
I understand that sometimes things come up which are unavoidable. In this case I ask for 48 hours notice. Cancellations made with less than 48 hours notice will be charged for as I am unable to fill the session. Multiple sessions will likely result in cessation of our work together.
IS COUNSELLING CONFIDENTIAL?
Yes, everything we discuss is strictly confidential. However, there are a few exceptions to confidentiality;
​
If a client discloses involvement in, or information about acts of terrorism, I am legally obliged to inform the authorities.
If a client gives me information regarding money laundering or drug-trafficking offences, I am obliged to pass this information to the police.
If a client is at risk of seriously hurting themselves or others.
Supervision - as a registered counsellor, my professional body (NCS) requires that I attend regular supervision. Client information is anonymised and the focus is largely on the therapist's work.
A judge or coroner can legally order the release of client notes.
​
My notes and client contact information are kept in locked cabinets which only I have access to. Client information is not identifiable. I use a secure email service provider which is encrypted end-to-end and password protected.
