The process
1
Free 20 min consultation
Starting therapy or even beginning with a new therapist can be daunting. To ensure I am the right fit for you, I offer a free 20-minute phone call or video call. This gives you the opportunity to feel confident in choosing someone who understands your specific challenges and to ask any questions you may have to find the right person for your journey.
2
50 min sessions
When we start working together, I will offer you weekly or bi-weekly sessions via Google Meets. The fee is £60 per session (£75 for couples). During this dedicated time, please ensure you are in a confidential place where you cannot be interrupted. Therapy sessions are about focusing on yourself, and creating the right environment is essential for self-exploration.

Regular reviews
Your progress and well-being are a key part of therapy. We will review our work together regularly to ensure you are getting the most out of your sessions. We will assess progress, examine our collaborative process, identify areas of focus, discuss challenges you may be experiencing, and evaluate what strategies are working effectively.
“My past, marked by childhood sexual abuse, used to define me. Now, I've been able to process that trauma, and the past doesn't define me anymore, I am a new man and I finally look forward to my future. I am not just a victim anymore. "
"Melissa represents everything a therapist should be: warm, empathic, and able to offer a non-judgmental space. By exploring my past, I have been able to make sense of who I am now and let go of the negative self-beliefs that were holding me back"
“I've changed a lot, since I started going to therapy. I understand a lot more about my reactivity now, and I am now able to ground myself. Also, I've stopped being so harsh on myself and started accepting me for who I am.”
