Payment Methods and Booking Sessions
-
⚠️ Please note that all prepayments must appear in your therapist’s account before a booking is accepted.
There are two ways to book appointments:
Secured appointments. If you want to secure a dedicated weekly therapy or assessment slot for yourself at the same time and day every week, and don’t want to risk someone else booking it from the website, simply tell your therapist you want a secured appointment slot, and then ensure that your prepayment arrives at least a week in advance of each session. The session will not be advertised. To maintain a secured session each week your prepayment for next week’s session must appear in your therapist’s account before or during this week’s session. Cash may also be used to prepay next week’s session during this week’s session. The same principle applies for booking multiple sessions in one payment.
Unsecured appointments are those not prepaid as detailed above. They are advertised after being offered to waiting list patients. Unsecured appointments can be easily booked by other patients, so they are not reliable ways to do weekly psychotherapy.

If you have a source that is willing to fund your psychotherapy, such as an insurance company or medical service, then there is a flat fee of £100 per session for individuals. Sessions must be prepaid as I no longer issue invoices.
If you can, it is best to pay for your therapy normally if you have a choice, and then seek reimbursement yourself from any funding body.
