SESSIONS & FEES

Online therapy sessions are £100 per 50 minutes.

I work with both self-funding clients and clients using recognised UK health insurance providers.

If you are using insurance, please check your level of cover before starting therapy, as any shortfall is payable by the client.

ONLINE THERAPY

All sessions are delivered online via a secure and confidential platform.

This allows you to access therapy from a private and comfortable space anywhere in the UK or internationally.
