Appointments

New Patients: Appointments are available for Introductory Meetings, Assessments, and follow-up sessions. When spaces are available new patients can book a 60 minute session by following the four steps A to D of the booking process below.

Previous Patients: If we have worked together before simply email to ask about appointments or waiting list places.

Practice closing April 11th 20:00 to May 7th 10:00

Any available appointments are listed here for first meetings, follow-ups, and assessments:
- Thursday April 11th at 15:00 is available

After your Introductory Meeting you can stop there, or go on to have your needs and difficulties assessed in detail. Full assessments take between 2 and 4 sessions to complete and will give you a summary analysis of the causes of your problems, and any recommendations for the type of therapy that may be appropriate for you (see the GUIDE page for details)
Estimated Waiting Times for Assessment:
- Variable, but may be between 2 and 8 weeks
After completing assessment, if no spaces are immediately available, you may have the option of joining the waiting list for a regular, weekly psychotherapy space.
Estimated Waiting Times for Weekly Psychotherapy Places:
- Between 2 and 16 weeks after Assessment (depending on your availability)
I try to keep my waiting list as short as possible these days. After Assessment, if there isn’t a space on the day or at the time you want, you can join the waiting list if you prefer. There is a £20 non-refundable deposit for this, which is deducted from your first session.
Current patients who want to take a break from therapy and return later, can also join the waiting list and resume when a desired space becomes available.
- There are 2 waiting list places currently available to patients who have been assessed

1. Please don’t request an appointment for another person under any circumstances. Confusion, communication and confidentiality issues always arise when you get involved in someone else’s therapy.
2. Please don’t request an appointment without first familiarising yourself with the types of psychotherapy offered by this practice.
3. Don’t request an appointment if you are seeing another psychotherapist, as I consider this unethical and disrespectful of the other therapist.
4. Please don’t request an appointment if you have previously breached our Agreement. This includes leaving with debts unpaid, abandoning therapy, ignoring emails, and other dishonest behaviours that destroy trust.
5. If you submit a form without payment or under false pretences, your contact details will be assumed to be SPAM, then reported, and blocked from further contact to prevent abuse of the service.
Under the above conditions, if you send payment £10 will be deducted from any refund to cover administration time.

If you see an appointment that suits you, you can book it by paying for your session by bank transfer using your banking app and the bank details below. Or add £5 per person to cover deductions if you prefer to use Paypal.
- Fees are listed on the Fees page and also in the new patient details form below.
- Always include your full name in your payment reference so that it can be linked to your booking details.

Integrity Check

The above appointment is genuinely requested for myself. I am not seeing nor seeking another therapist. I understand that if I submit this form without payment my submission will be assumed to be SPAM and invalidated.

Appointment requests are answered Monday to Friday (except during holidays)
Please check your email inbox and SPAM folder for your appointment offer

When both your session fee and personal details form are received, your therapist will send you an offer of appointment. You must confirm acceptance of the offer before the RSVP deadline stated in the email in order to finalise your booking. This step is also a means of confirming that you have entered your email address correctly on the form.

If you are distressed or in urgent need of help please remember that psychotherapy is not suitable as crisis intervention. See the crisis contact numbers below.
