FAQ
Some House keeping questions:
There is plenty of parking around the counselling premises.
There is disabled access and toilet facilities on each level.
Please attend no earlier than 5 minutes before your session to prevent a crossover of clients, unless agreed earlier arrival in person with therapist.
Please do not engage with persons within the vicinity.
How much will it cost me? Treatment is costed at a minimum and paid usually in advance or at least a session in advance. Transparency about your experience and whether treatment is working is important at every step along the way and you can choose to stop treatment at any time however it is always helpful to give one session notice to be able to bring things to a positive ending.
Appointments can be made either by phone, in person or by email. Often when I am consulting I will be texting between clients to arrange/confirm first appointments, rather than have clients waiting long times for an appointment unnecessarily.
We are often asked how can our service be recommended to others as sometimes clients are hesitant about letting others know they have sought therapy. I think there are ways of doing this and we advertise through media so often people can be directed to our services via these routes, however we cannot make someone want to go for help, they have to be ready themself to do so. They have to be ready to engage in a process of commitment and be motivated and ready to grow and make positive change.
