Therapist FAQs

Essentially, anyone: adults, children, couples. There isn’t a typical person and our patients come from all backgrounds, gender, age, race.

Psychotherapy can be particularly helpful for those who suspect that difficulties in their lives, have an emotional or psychological origin.

Psychotherapy is also helpful for gaining more self-knowledge, deeper self-awareness, improving mental resilience and managing emotions. It can be an incredibly beneficial process for helping live a more fulfilled, happier life.

It all depends on the individual, their commitment to therapy and their personal circumstances. Our therapy requires a weekly commitment (once a week, minimum of one hour), to give patients continuity and progress.

For our consultation service, our costs are as follows:

• Administration fee: £60
• Consultation fee (one appointment): £90
