What can I expect?
Once you have made contact and we have established what you would like support with, we will arrange a time to meet for an initial session, lasting the full 60 minutes for EMDR or 50 minutes for talking therapy. This allows us to further explore your needs, see if you are suitable for EMDR and to establish whether we would be a good fit to work together. We’ll then book in a regular slot to see each other (or let me know if you need to be flexible, I can try and accommodate) for weekly sessions. It’s strange to talk to someone you don’t know about such personal issues, but over a short period of time, trust can develop and the relationship between therapist and client can be incredibly healing and reparative.
Frequently asked questions
Cancellation policy
I require 24 hours notice when cancelling a session, otherwise the session fee will need to paid (if we cannot re-arrange for the same week). If you cancel a third or more of your sessions, you may lose your appointment slots.
How do I pay?
Payment is required prior to each session by bank transfer- please use your full name as the reference. You’ll receive my bank details once we’ve arranged an initial consultation.
How many sessions should I have?
This depends on what you would like to process, the complexity of the events (singular or multiple/long term incidences) and also how rapidly your brain in processing and/or linking to other events that have happened in your life that will also need processing. EMDR is usually effective from 2-12 sessions and further treatment can be booked if necessary.
