How long does therapy last?
This is a difficult question to answer but generally 8-20 EMDR therapy sessions are enough for most difficulties. Sometimes it can be quicker, and equally, therapy can last a year or more, especially if you have had a traumatic childhood.
How long does a session last?
Assessment and general sesions will last for 50 minutes.
It is sometimes recommended that EMDR sessions are longer and a double session can be booked.
How regularly should I attend sessions?
It is recommended that you attend sessions weekly.
Are sessions confidential?
The information you give me is treated confidentially and your notes will be stored in a safe place. There are rare circumstances where confidentiality may be broken, i.e. if there is a risk of harm to yourself or others. This would be discussed with you.
What if I need to cancel a session?
If you provide more than 24 hours notice, then you won't be charged for the session.
Fees
I generally charge £135 per 50 minutes session. Sometimes a double session can be useful for EMDR sessions.
Payment can be made by cash or cheque in person, or electronicallly in advance.
