Fees, Sessions and Ways of Working Together
Thinking about counselling can bring up a lot of questions, including practical ones.
- How much does it cost?
- How many sessions will I need?
- What if I am not sure it is for me?
This page answers all of those questions simply and honestly. There is no minimum commitment and no expectation to decide anything before you are ready.
First Step Session - £75
First Step Session | £75 | 60 Minutes Online
Most people begin here. This is a single, confidential online session where we explore what is bringing you to
counselling now, begin to make sense of any emotional or relational patterns, and gently consider what kind of support might feel helpful.
There is no obligation to continue beyond this session. Some people find one conversation is enough to bring clarity. Others choose to continue. We decide together..
Ongoing Counselling
Ongoing Counselling | £75 per Session | 60 Minutes Online
After an initial session, some clients choose to continue working together regularly. Sessions are available weekly, fortnightly or as needed depending on what works best for your life and circumstances.
There is no set number of sessions required. Some people work with me for a few months. Others find longer-term support more helpful. The pace is always yours.
Working in Blocks (optional)
Some clients, once we have a clear sense of direction together, prefer to work in a short block of sessions.
This can be helpful if you want a defined focus, are working through a specific transition, or simply find it easier to plan ahead.
A three-session block tends to suit people navigating a specific change or wanting to consolidate progress. A
five-session block allows more depth, steadiness and the development of practical tools. Longer-term blocks are available for more layered or ongoing difficulties.
Block working is always discussed together and offered as an option, never required. Payment can be arranged session by session or in advance.
90-Minute
Deepening Session — £90
Available by discussion
Occasionally, clients request a longer session to explore something more fully or work at a slower pace.

A Few Things Worth Knowing
- All sessions take place online via a secure video platform. You can join from anywhere in the UK.
- Counselling here is confidential and professionally bound. Your privacy and safety are held throughout.
- You do not need to be in crisis to begin. Many of the people I work with have simply reached a point where they
- no longer want to carry things alone.
- If you are unsure where to start, a First Step Session is usually the best place.
