First Session
Reduced fee £40.00
I offer the first session at a reduced fee of £40.00.
This is an opportunity for us to meet one another, for me to get an understanding of what is bringing you to counselling, and for you to get a sense of how I work and to ask any questions.
There is no obligation to commit after this reduced-cost first session.

Sliding Scale Details
I offer a sliding scale with the intention of making counselling affordable.
This is a self-select fee, and I've offered the below information to help you to choose.
I've based these on the principles of economic justice.
- £60 - You have to be considerate of finances. Perhaps your cost of living is quite tight. It is incredibly rare that you can afford luxuries or 'treats' for yourself. You may be managing debt.
- £70 - Your finances allow you to live comfortably, and you don't need to be overly considerate of spenditure. You have access to steady and reliable income. You are able to afford treats and luxuries in moderation.
- £80 - You have access to reliable income, have access to financial security either through high income and/or savings. You are able to spontaneously afford luxuries and/or treats without needing to make trades or cut backs.
Availability
I have various appointment times available including weekdays and weekday evenings.

Working Online
Working online is a great way to access counselling from your own space. This may be suitable for you if you have accessibility needs, or where travelling is challenging for example.
To work online, all you will need is a device such as a smartphone, tablet or laptop, and you can follow the link to access ZOOM. This is free and easy to use.
We can have a taster session to practice using the platform if it's new to you.
I have various appointment times available for working online including weekdays and weekday evenings. You are able to book flexible sessions via my
online calendar here.
