FAQs & Fees

How do you work?

My work is collaborative, thoughtful and tailored to the individual. We will regularly review how therapy is progressing, what has been helpful, and whether the work continues to reflect what you would like to achieve.

Before the Initial Consultation, I will send you the relevant information and therapeutic agreement. Payment is made before the appointment.

Initial Consultation

Your first appointment is an opportunity for us to meet, talk about what has brought you to therapy, and begin to understand what you would like help with. I know that talking about sex, relationships or intimate difficulties can feel daunting, particularly with someone you have only just met. You do not need to tell me everything at once. We will work at a pace that feels manageable for you, and during the initial consultation, I will usually ask about:
what is happening for you at the moment and what you would like to change
when the difficulty began and anything that may have contributed to it
your relationships, sexual wellbeing and relevant sexual history
your physical and emotional health, including any medication or medical conditions that may be relevant
previous therapy, treatment or support you may have received
what you are hoping to achieve through therapy
If you are attending as a couple or with another person, I may suggest some individual time with each person before or alongside our joint work, so that everyone has space to speak openly and feel heard. Joint sessions are £90 for 60 minutes.
For psychosexual difficulties, I may also explain some of the physical, psychological and relationship factors that can affect sexual functioning. Where appropriate, we can discuss whether it would be useful for you to speak with your GP or another healthcare professional alongside therapy.

What happens next?

Towards the end of the consultation, we will talk together about what may be helpful and whether working together feels like a good fit.
I may suggest a possible therapeutic approach or some areas for us to explore. You will also have the opportunity to ask me questions and decide whether you would like to continue.
There is no obligation to book further sessions after the initial consultation.
Most importantly, the first session is not a test and you do not need to arrive knowing exactly what the problem is or how to describe it. We work that out together.

What are your fees?

Choosing to begin psychosexual or relationship therapy is often a considered decision. Many people take time to reflect before committing, particularly when the work feels sensitive, complex, or difficult to talk about.

My fees reflect my specialist training and experience, the time I take to prepare for each client, and my commitment to offering thoughtful, personalised therapy.

Initial Consultation

The Initial Consultation is a 60-minute appointment and costs £80 per person.

If you are attending as a couple or with another person, the assessment process begins with an individual appointment for each person before we meet together. Joint sessions are £90 for 60 minutes.

Psychosexual Therapy

50 minutes - £80

90 minutes - £120

Longer sessions can be helpful when there is a lot to explore, when you are attending as a couple/throuple, or when you prefer a more spacious pace.

Relationship Therapy

50 minutes - £90
90 minutes - £130

Longer sessions can be particularly useful for couples/throuples who want enough time to slow things down, feel properly heard, and work in depth without feeling rushed.

Problematic Pornography and Sex Use

50 minutes - £80

90 minutes - £120

A note on how I work: I take time to plan and craft each session with care. I also choose to work with a small client caseload, so that the work remains personalised, thoughtful, and clinically held.

Appointments are available from 9am to 9pm on weekdays and some Saturday mornings

Fees FAQ

1) Do I need a longer session?

Longer sessions can be helpful for couples, for more complex presentations, or when you would like the work to feel more spacious and unhurried. We can decide together what fits best.

2) How many sessions will I need?

This varies. Some people come for focused work over a shorter period; others prefer a longer-term, exploratory approach. We can discuss an initial plan that feels realistic and tailored to your needs.

3) Why do you keep a small caseload?

Because it allows me to prepare properly, hold the work with care, and offer a more personalised service. Many clients value a pace and depth that doesn’t feel rushed or formulaic.

Further Information

In cases outside the scope of my practice, I may need to make a referral to a trusted colleague, or other health professional, who might be better placed to help. I would only do this with your written consent.

Sometimes a person may need specialist mental-health support beyond the scope of my practice. Where this is the case, I will discuss this with you and may recommend support from your GP, another therapist or an appropriate healthcare service.
