I can offer online, telephone, or face to face therapy as per your personal preference or your home environment allows. I also offer outdoor therapy sessions within the Falkirk area.
50 minutes
Each person needs a different amount of sessions and the numbers of sessions is decided by yourself. Many people find 5-6 sessions can be helpful for them to get over something but for others it can be a longer term commitment 12 and upwards depending on personal need. Some people find just one session is useful to process something specific. Duration is something you decide and can stop at any time
Sessions are designed to be flexible around work and family commitments. A minimum of 48 hours is required to cancel a session

I offer sessions to students and unemployed people for £35 a 50 minute session. There are many charities who offer free/donation based counselling if this is still unaffordable for you, FDAMH in Falkirk https://www.fdamh.org.uk and Quiet Waters https://www.quiet-waters.org in Camelon for instance. Talk Matters is another great charity for clients in the Fife area. https://talkmatters.org

I will not disclose anything you discuss with me to a third party unless you, another person’s or a child’s safety is at risk. In these instances I am legally and ethically bound to break confidentiality, but will always endeavour to discuss this with you first. However, this may not always be possible as the first priority is always safety.
