The Process
Contact us confidentially by email or telephone to discuss your situation and whether our service may be suitable.
You will meet with a therapist to discuss what it is that you need and to make sure that therapy will be suitable for you, so that we can allocate you to the right therapist.
Therapy may be short-term or open-ended depending on what feels clinically appropriate and helpful.
