Free Phone Consultation
We offer a free 15 minute consultation to discuss your needs, evaluate what type of therapy might be the best for you specifically and arrange a therapist that fits your criteria best. You can book in for your consultation below at a time that fits your schedule.
How long is a therapy session
A session lasts for one hour. The initial session maybe a little longer so as to take down your details. Going longer than an hour can leave the client drained at the end of the session.
When should i begin therapy
When you feel ready in yourself. Also if your sleep, day to day living is being affected in a way that is impacting negatively on your life. If you find your mind is constantly ruminating about a troubling issue and you have a sense that all is not well and you need the help of more than a friend or family. We trust that you will in fact know yourself when is right for you even if the initial step may be daunting for you.
Do I need a referral
You can attend therapy at any stage yourself. The choice is completely yours. We do get referrals from G.P. and other health care providers for clients, but people mostly self refer. We are happy with both self referral and G.P. referral but confidentially is always kept between the client and therapist.
hOW CONFIDENTIAL IS WHAT I SAY
Confidentially between a therapist and the client is the foundation of the therapeutic relationship. Your confidentially is absolutely assured at all times. This helps the client feel free to share his or her difficulties, knowing it is a secure, safe and confidential place to do so. Confidentiality is the bedrock of all therapy.
There are limits to confidentiality in a small number of areas. This would be where the client presents as a danger to him or herself or to others. If the client declares a child is in danger then confidentially cannot be held in such situations. However its important to know that in such situations then the therapist will do their upmost to explore these issues with the client from the outset. Also, this situation very rarely occurs in our experience.

wILL I ALWAYS SEE THE SAME THERAPIST
Yes, you will always see the same therapist. We work from a therapeutic relationship standpoint and its utmost that a client gets to see the same therapist throughout their journey. A client may request to see a different therapist at any stage or needs may arise to change to another therapist who may have a specialised area of therapy that the client requests. It’s important that you know in the normal course of therapy you will always see the same therapist. There will never be the situation where you would be asked to see a different therapist unless it is for the benefit of the client.
hOW LONG WILL I NEED THERAPY
There is no specific answer to this. It will depend on the presenting issues the client brings. However to aid the client in getting a better idea of how long therapy will take we carry out regular reviews with the client. The therapist will check in with the client no longer than six sessions to review what progress is being achieved and a plan for going forward to the next review. It's important that a client understands the plan going forward.
hOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO GET AN APPOINTMENT
We operate 7 days a week and offer morning, afternoon and night sessions. In that case, we will be able to see a client very quickly. it mainly depends on the client’s own availability and possible demand for services at particular times. If you have a flexible schedule then we can see you very quickly.
