Is therapy right for me?

Accepted Answer

Therapy is for anyone who wants to seek emotional support with a difficulty they are facing. You do not need to be in crisis; you can access therapy any time that it feels right for you.

Question 2

How many sessions will I be able to access?

Accepted Answer

The number of counseling sessions you will receive  varies depending on whether your support is funded or privately commissioned. 
For funded support, the number of sessions is typically determined by the specific funding arrangement in place, which may include a set number of sessions or an assessment of ongoing needs. 
If you are privately commissioning your sessions, you have the flexibility to decide the duration and frequency of your counseling in collaboration with our therapist, tailored to your individual needs and goals.

How much will therapy cost?

Accepted Answer

We currently charge £75 a session for private 1-1 therapy, this cost is the same regardless of age and location.

Question 4

Will my therapist tell me how to solve my problems?

Accepted Answer

Our therapists will never tell you how to solve your problems. Instead, sessions provide a safe and supportive environment where you can explore your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. This process helps you gain a better understanding of yourself, which in turn enables you to make informed decisions that are right for you. Our aim is to empower you to find your own solutions and develop coping strategies that work best for your unique situation. This approach helps build long-term resilience and personal growth.
