Question 1

Is Psychotherapy/Counselling for me?

Accepted Answer

Sometimes you may feel overwhelmed and unable to cope with daily tasks. Other times, you may just wish to talk and want someone who ‘gets you’ to listen without any judgments or reprimands. In the initial session, we will explore why you have come for counselling and what your goals for therapy are. You would also be able to ascertain if BeeSan Psychotherapy is the right place for you and if we will be able to work together in a therapeutic relationship. There is no obligation to return to counselling if you don’t feel like the service is the right fit for you as it is important to find someone who can support you in your journey.

Question 2

How many sessions do I need?

Accepted Answer

I offer both long- and short-term psychotherapy/counselling sessions depending on what your immediate and long-term needs are. This is usually discussed as the sessions progress, with a review every 6 weeks. We will contract initially for 6 sessions and if you feel like you need more sessions, we can continue with an open-ended contract and will discuss an ending as it approaches and when you feel ready to end. Sessions take place on a weekly basis, and for more information on how to get the best out of therapy, kindly get in touch by filling out the contact form indicating so.

Question 3

How will therapy be delivered?

Accepted Answer

I have a physical office where I offer both face-to-face and online sessions (preferably with zoom). I am also flexible to offer blended sessions when needed if you are out of town and would not want to miss your session(s). All of this will be discussed and agreed 48 hours prior to your next session.

Question 4

How long does a session last?

Accepted Answer

Typically, a counselling session lasts between 50-60 minutes. I offer a 50-minute initial assessment session and then 60 minutes counselling session offered on a weekly basis. A shorter, longer, or one-off session can also be offered on request. Kindly indicate on the inquiry form if you are looking for a tailored service.

Question 5

How much does a session cost?

Accepted Answer

An initial assessment session cost £45 for 50 minutes, while all counselling sessions are priced at £55 for a 60-minute session, paid weekly. I also offer concessionary rate of between £40- £45 for students on placement, those who are unemployed, on low income, or having financial difficulties, making it impossible to access counselling. Please be aware that we operate limited concession spaces, so do get in touch quickly if you are worried that your finances may be a limiting factor to accessing our service.

Question 6

Are my sessions with you confidential?

Accepted Answer

I work according to the BACP guidelines which requires me to keep all your information private and confidential except in cases where there is a serious risk of harm to yourself or another person or when a law has been broken. In these scenarios, I will have to disclose your information to outside agencies but will discuss this with you prior to doing that. My service is also GDPR compliant, and all your personal information is stored in an encrypted file which is inaccessible to anyone but me.

Question 7

Can I cancel an appointment after booking?

Accepted Answer

I operate a 48-hour cancellation policy at BeeSan Psychotherapy and Counselling services. If you cancel or reschedule your appointment within 48 hours, you will not be charged for that session. However, the full charge will be incurred if cancellation is in less than 48 Hours

Question 8

How do I contact you?

Accepted Answer

For an initial consultation, you can send me an email stating your availability, a little history about yourself and your goal for therapy. I will respond to you within 48 hours during weekdays. Alternatively, you can fill out the contact form on my website or book directly through my online booking form and I will be in touch with you to arrange a suitable date and time for your assessment.
