FEES
£60 per 50 minute session / £65 for sessions finishing after 6pm. Some concessionary places are available for those on a very low income, please ask if this is you.
MEETING
In person: I can offer sessions from a dedicated room in my home in Portishead.
Online: Lockdown brought us online therapy and it turns out it works very well. Opening up to deeper layers of the psyche can surprisingly sometimes be easier online or by phone.
Walk & Talk: Working outdoors in nature can be liberating and conducive and some people find this easier than sitting in a room or meeting online. The shoreline in Portishead I find is a good place to meet with the view out to sea, and driftwood logs providin good seating in undisturbed places.
FIRST STEPS
Please contact me by email – info@ingridmurphycounselling.co.uk – to arrange an initial appointment. If it would be helpful to have a chat first I offer a 15 minute telephone conversation free of charge.
The first session is an opportunity for both of us to get a sense of how it would be to work together and I may ask some questions to gain a deeper understanding of the difficulties that bring you to therapy.
Prior to our first session I will send you my therapy agreement which sets out my terms for cancellations / breaks in therapy, confidentiality, record-keeping etc. so you are aware of this.
