What are the timing of sessions?

My practice is based in Braintree, Essex. It is a safe, calm and welcoming space which is easily accessible from Halstead, Sudbury, Coggeshall, Chelmsford, Colchester, Dunmow and other nearby places. There is free onsite parking available (on a first-come, first-served basis). If you are coming by train, there is a walk of approximately 10 mins from the mainline station.
I also practice from a peaceful and comfortable space within a historical building in Central Colchester (Tuesday daytime and Thursday evenings). There are public car parks within walking distance.

At our first session, we can discuss your reasons for seeking therapy and how we might work together. Understanding your expectations from our work is an important part of this process. Following the first session, if we both decide to work together, I usually suggest starting with 6 sessions, at the end of which we would have a review. For more information, please read here.
