Therapy Fees Overview

You start your therapy journey with an initial telephone conversation, which is free and confidential (around 15 minutes), to discuss what you want to achieve and to ask any questions about working together. Don’t worry if you are not entirely clear about your goals; that’s perfectly okay.

Please email, telephone, or text to arrange this initial conversation:

Email: kim@tassotalkingtherapy.co.uk  

Telephone: 07831 687882

Following this initial conversation, we schedule an assessment session, which can be conducted either in person or online. This session lasts about an hour and gives you the opportunity to ensure you feel comfortable. During the assessment session, I’ll ask a series of questions to evaluate your needs and to comply with professional regulations. If it turns out that I am unable to help you - such as if you require more specialized support - I will do my best to assist you in finding someone who can.

If you decide to proceed with therapy, you will receive a working agreement to read and sign. We can clarify any questions regarding this agreement during one of your sessions.

The subsequent psychotherapy sessions typically last 50 minutes and usually occur once a week, although we can adjust the schedule to fit your needs. Some clients prefer sessions every two weeks.

While some individuals may only require a few sessions, others may seek longer-term therapy. We will regularly review your aims and progress together, and you maintain control over when therapy concludes, generally culminating in a final "endings" session.
