Initial consultation
At an initial consultation, we can discuss what has brought you here, whether I think I can help, whether you feel comfortable and whether we both feel that we could work well together. This consultation is offered at the reduced fee of £20, to cover basic costs. Spaces are limited to particular times each week, but other slots are usually available for ongoing work.
EH1 Therapies is a basement flat. Please check the contact page and if it is inaccessible to you, please feel free to get in touch, or to offer comments/ suggestions, as I will endeavour to offer an alternative.
Practicalities
I work with adults and young people aged 16+ years.
Fees are £20 for initial consultation and £50 thereafter. All sessions are in person, for 50mins.
From 1st January 2026, new client rates will increase to £55.
Sessions are invoiced at the end of the month, or by agreement.
Starting therapy is a committment. To best build and maintain the therapeutic relationship, I work on a weekly basis. This is usually at the same time each week.
I ask for 48hrs notice of all cancellations and reserve the right to charge the full fee if sessions are cancelled with less notice, though I may be able to offer an alternative.
For directions and accessibility, please see the contact page.
At present, I only have a limited number of concessions. An alternative list of low cost counselling in Edinburgh can be found here, but there may be waiting lists, or a limit on the number of sessions available.
Endings
Endings can be difficult, but ending openly and reflectively can be very healing. Ideally, we would plan our ending together and give ourselves time to reflect on the work done and the way ahead.
If you are experiencing difficulties in the process, whether these are emotional, or financial, or in relation to me, it would be helpful to discuss these, as often these difficulties can be worked through and I am always open to feedback.
However, you reserve the right to end anytime, without explanation, but with 48hrs notice.
