Transformation work starts the minute you decide enough is enough and you want resolution to your problem and are prepared to do what it takes to bring about the changes you seek.

Once that decision has been made, you have already taken the first step on the journey. 

Think about the affordability of therapy. Be honest with yourself. If the cost is going to cause you anxiety then it is likely to interrupt how successful therapy can be.  However, there are always alternative solutions and there are many different pathways to the same destination. So don’t let cost deter you from making an enquiry, reaching out costs nothing and I am always happy to signpost toward other organisations or reading material to help you.

Once you have decided that you want to engage the services of a therapist, you have to find the one that is right for you.  Take your time. 

Personal therapy is serious, life-changing, and life-enhancing. You need to feel comfortable enough with your therapist to get uncomfortable.  Try to find out as much as you can before your first session.  Once you have identified a few potential therapists, make an initial enquiry with each of them and check how you feel about them and their response.

Different therapists operate differently. With me, you can reach out via my contact form, email or telephone.  Please leave your name, contact details, and an outline of what you are seeking therapy for. I will respond at the earliest opportunity and always within 24-hours outside of exceptional circumstances.

I may respond by email initially if I need to clarify any points but I will always aim to conduct a brief telephone consultation with you prior to our first session. It varies. I treat each and every enquiry individually but will respond honestly to your questions and concerns. The telephone consultation is a diarised booking where I call you back at an agreed time and it usually lasts between 15 -30 minutes. 

We will only book that initial consultation when we are both happy to do so.  

Then, I always allow for a 48 hour cooling off period, so if you change your mind in that time, that is fine. 

But you must let me know.

Your time is sacred, so is mine. Do not book a consultation or session and then not turn up. It’s rude! Aside from my having a strict policy around cancellations and no-shows, more devastatingly you have taken an hour I could have given to someone else. 

 I love this work and I limit the number of people I work with to ensure that my clients get the very best of my skills and attention. I do not agree to work with everyone. This is why I give as much opportunity as possible on this website for you to get an understanding of who I am and how I work.

So you can be as sure as possible that you want to work with me.

I aim to give us the best chance possible to do some amazing work together. That starts with at the very least mutual respect but hopefully a spark of connection that can grow profoundly for the period of the therapeutic journey.
