Pricing and Frequency
Counselling
I would meet you for one 50 minute session, at the same time, each week. How long counselling continues depends on many things. You may benefit from just one session, but generally people come for a period of anything from a few weeks to over a year. You may also find that having established a good therapeutic relationship with me, that you like to come back to counselling at future periods in your life when you are experiencing difficulties.
The first step is to phone me, and we can discuss any questions you might have. These might be concerning me or counselling in general, or you might simply want to get a feeling of whether I am the right counsellor for you.
A good rapport between us is essential, if you are to feel relaxed and safe enough to discuss your problems freely. It may suit you to 'shop around'. You can always ring me, have a chat, and then call back later when you have made up your mind.
The cost is £40 per 50 minute session.
Coaching
Most people see a coach once a week for several months. Sometimes this can be on the basis of ad hoc sessions, or sometimes as part of a package of sessions. Although some coaches conduct their sessions over the phone, I only work face to face, since I have found this works better.
In a recent survey coaches were found to charge anything between £40 to several hundred pounds an hour, with the top end of the scale being work for executive clients.
I offer coaching at £60 for a 50 minute session.
I am happy to see low waged or unwaged clients at reduced rates, which can be negotiated prior to the first session. If you decide to pay in advance for a 'package' of 6 sessions, that would also be at a reduced rate.
Location
Sessions take place at Bodywise Natural Health Centre, which is just a few minutes walk from Bethnal Green tube in East London. I'm there on Saturdays and some other times in the week.
