Welcome to my Fees page. This page gives full up-to-date information of what I charge for all the services I offer including counselling, supervision and mindfulness courses, retreats, training events and webinars.

"I aim to make my counselling services accessible, affordable and available to all."

In the current climate I do appreciate that many people are experiencing financial difficulties or may have a limited budget. As I aim to make my counselling services accessible, affordable and available to all, including people from all backgrounds and communities, I am always happy to discuss your individual circumstances with you at the start of counselling, how you are going to pay and what you can afford. I may be able to offer a concessionary rate for the following:

  • Students
  • Trainee counsellors and psychotherapists
  • Disabled people
  • Pensioners
  • Clients who are unwaged
  • Low income

If you would like to discuss with me the concessions I offer please contact me

In order to ensure I can continue to provide accessible, effective and high quality services to clients, supervisees, course participants and to everyone I work with, I review my fees on an annual basis and may increase fees for each service annually in accordance with my business costs and to reflect my level of experience, CPD, training and development.

Fees – 1st April 2025-31st March 2026

I will be increasing my fees for counselling and mindfulness on 1st April 2025 and this will apply to the period from 1st April 2025-31st March 2026. As I only began charging for supervision from January 2025 there will be no further increases for supervisees this year.

I will then review my fees at the end of 2025 and if I decide to raise my fees this will take effect for all services from 1st April 2026.

Please be aware the 2025-26 fee increases will not affect any of my current therapy clients, supervisees or mindfulness course participants. The new charges and subsequent fee increases will only apply to new referrals or people who take up my services after 1 st April 2025. If current clients, supervisees or course participants pause or end their sessions but then return after a gap of more than four months they will be charged at the new higher rate or offered a new concessionary rate, unless we have agreed otherwise.
