FAQs

 

What's meant by a Person Centred Approach?

This approach is based on the idea that everyone has the desire and potential within them to make decisions for themselves that will enable them to achieve personal fulfilment and happiness. The individual may not feel capable of making this change but with support and exploration it is possible.

 

What is meant by a Psychodynamic Approach?

This approach helps individuals to bring the unconscious mind into the consciousness. In more practical terms it's a form of exploration into deep rooted thoughts, feelings, dreams and memories that may be affecting and influencing the individual in their daily life.

 

How are sessions run and how much are they?

I conduct sessions via phone, Zoom, and WhatsApp - whichever is preferable to you.

 

Sessions are held weekly at a mutually agreed day and time - each session is for 50 minutes and the associated charge is £50. If for any reason you feel that more frequent sessions are needed please contact me so that we can discuss.

 

To secure an appointment payment needs to be made at least 48 hours in advance of the agreed date - this should be via online bank transfer.

 

If for any reason a session needs to be cancelled or rescheduled this is only possible if at least 48 hours' notice is given. If less than 48 hours' notice is given then, unfortunately, this will result in the full session charge still applying.  

 

What about confidentiality and ethical issues?

Inline with the BACP ethical framework I have monthly meetings with my supervisor to ensure that I am maintaining safe and ethical working practices. 

 

Everything that is discussed in our sessions is confidential and will not be shared other than in exceptional circumstances such as safeguarding issues or if required by law.
