WHERE WOULD I SEE YOU

I see clients for counselling and couple therapy in West London at The Chesson Therapy Centre. The Centre is within walking distance of West Kensington tube station, and is particularly convenient for those clients living or working in Fulham, Hammersmith and Kensington. There is metered car parking usually available on the street. For a map Click here

HOW MUCH DO YOU CHARGE AND WHAT ARE MY PAYMENT OPTIONS

I charge £60 for individuals and £80 for couples. The cost of the extended first session for couples is £120. Payment is by cheque or cash, and can be by the session or month. It is possible to use electronic bank transfer by arrangement

HOW LONG DOES A SESSION LAST

The regular session length is fifty minutes. For couples, I offer an extended assessment session on our first meeting which takes 75 minutes.

HOW LONG MIGHT THE THERAPY TAKE TO COMPLETE

This depends on each individual client and can vary greatly. Whether the therapy is to be open-ended or time limited will be agreed between us in the first few sessions. It can be useful to have a number of meetings and then review to assess progress. Generally, a very specific issue can be faster to resolve than more complex problems that have occurred over many years.

WHAT IS YOUR POLICY ON CANCELLATIONS

You will be asked to pay a cancellation fee at half the session rate, whether notice is given or not. I will always do my best to offer an alternative space if a session has had to be canceled.
