APPOINTMENTS
I offer sessions for individuals and couples on Mondays and Tuesdays from 7am to 7pm and on Wednesdays from 7am to 12 noon.
I see clients in Balham, South West London and offer sessions in person, online or via the telephone. The initial session is a chance for you to talk about what has brought you to therapy and what you hope to gain from it. It is also an opportunity for you to ask any questions you may have and get a feel of how we might work together. I will explain my policy on confidentiality, fees, cancellations and appointment times. If you want to go ahead and book further sessions we will talk about whether you would like to set some goals and establish the initial focus of the therapy. I am always open to your feedback and happy to hear about what does and doesn't work for you in the therapy. If you would like to continue with sessions, we will book a regular session. Each individual therapy session is 50 minutes long and takes place weekly on the same day and at the same time apart from pre-arranged holidays. Couples therapy sessions can be 60 minutes or 75 minutes once every week or every two weeks.
THERAPY ONLINE
I have been working with clients online for over ten years. This is a very effective solution for anyone who cannot regularly get to my practice for face-to-face sessions. It is also possible to mix both, with some weeks in person and some weeks online.
