Vanessa Vaughan Counselling

Free Telephone Consultation

I understand that choosing a therapist isn’t easy especially if you are feeling vulnerable or overwhelmed, and with this in mind, I offer a free 30-minute phone call.  This will give us an opportunity to gently explore your concerns and see if counselling is right for you.  We can work out if we might be a good fit to work together and whether you would like to then book an initial session.

Get in touch to book your Free Telephone Consultation today.

Initial Session

We’ll talk about what brings you to counselling, how confidentiality works, any expectations, hopes or worries you may have, and you can ask me any questions.

Hopefully, this will give you a good idea of what counselling with me will be like.  It is important that you feel secure and comfortable with your counsellor and there is no pressure to book more sessions.  If you decide that you would like to continue counselling, we can arrange to meet again.

What to expect in your first therapy session.

Counselling Sessions

Counselling takes place in planned, regular sessions which last 50 minutes and are usually once a week.

I work short term and long term and we can talk about what might work for you.  Some people find that just a few sessions is enough, while others might come for longer. 

We will regularly review the work and you can, of course, end at any time, although I would suggest a planned ending so that we finish the work in a safe and professional way. 

Cancellation Policy

If you need to cancel or reschedule your appointment, I ask for at least 24 hours in advance to avoid any cancellation fees.

Payment Method

My fees are £60 per session and are payable in advance by bank transfer.
