 It's difficult to judge how many appointments you will need, everyone is unique and the number and frequency of appointments reflects that. Some clients have 3 or 4 appointments while others have 8 or more; some ask for weekly sessions while others choose to meet less frequently to adapt to new behaviours before making additional changes; or to spread the cost of their therapy.
Confidentiality and discretion are important; therefore all appointments are arranged and timed so that you won’t accidentally meet other clients arriving or leaving Life Designs.
Where can I have an appointment?
Counselling and psychotherapy can be accessed by telephone or through a face-to-face appointment at Life Designs offices or your home. EMDR is only available at a face-to-face appointment.
Face-to-Face: From experience therapy works best when people go to Life Designs office. Clients report that during the journey to and from the office they have time and space to reflect on previous appointments and focus on the next appointment. The added bonus of this is that clients (on average) spend less time in therapy.
Counselling in Manchester
82 King Street, Manchester, M2 4WQ
Over the phone: That’s not to say that telephone counselling is not effective, it is. Telephone counselling is ideal for people who travel for their job or live a long way from an office and want to overcome their issues and problems with me.
At home: Home appointments are available for people who are unable to leave their home and would prefer a face-to-face approach. Home visits are slightly more expensive, there is an additional mileage charge for home visits of 40p per mile per visit.
To make attending therapy accessible, appointments are available between 7.30am and 9.00pm.
How much will it cost?
Not as much as you as you think. In an attempt to cheer ourselves up we might buy the latest gadget, clothes or shoes and sure enough the happiness that comes with those treats lasts for a short while before we need to treat ourselves again. Never once, thinking of the cumulative cost. Whereas, therapy is a long lasting investment in your happiness and wellbeing, and the cost of each session is less than a night out; gadgets, clothes or shoes. Therapy with me is £50 per hour and unlike some therapists, I deliver a full therapy hour, and ask you to allow additional time (but not money) for your appointment, because settling in and booking a future appointment is not included in the therapy hour.
