Terms and Fees

Professional Standards & Credentials

I am a Chartered Clinical Psychologist registered with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) (Reg. No. PYL37692), and hold the EuroPsy Certification in Psychology (UK-062846-201912). I am also recognised by the Dutch Ministry of Public Health, Welfare and Sport (CIBG) through registration in the BIG Register (99928682725).

I adhere to the HCPC’s professional standards and work in line with ethical guidance from the British Psychological Society and European Federation of Psychologists’ Associations.

Confidentiality & Data Protection

What you share in therapy is confidential. The only exceptions are if there is a serious risk of harm to you or someone else, or if I am legally required to disclose information.

Your personal data (such as contact details, session notes, and GP information) is stored securely and handled in accordance with UK data protection law. I am registered with the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) (Reg. No. ZB603179). Confidential documents may be shared via password-protected attachments.

You are welcome to request whether your assessment report is shared with your GP or psychiatrist (if applicable).

Fees & Payment Policy

  • Standard session fee: £140 (50 minutes). I reserve a limited number of spaces at a reduced rate; please feel free to enquire if cost is a barrier.

  • Payment: At the end of each appointment by electronic bank transfer

  • Late cancellation or missed appointment: Charged in full if cancelled with less than 48 hours’ notice

  • Holidays: You may cancel one session free of charge every 8 weeks

  • Insurance-funded sessions: Clients are responsible for confirming pre-authorisation and covering any shortfall

A detailed therapy contract is provided and agreed upon before we begin working together.

Online Therapy & Platforms

Sessions may take place in-person or via secure video, using Zoom or Google Meet—both platforms are widely used, user-friendly, and compliant with international data protection standards.

You do not need to pay for these platforms, but you will need access to a private, quiet space and a stable internet connection.

Crisis Support & Emergency Care

Therapy is not a crisis or emergency service. If you are at immediate risk of harm, please contact your GP, call 999, or attend your nearest A&E.

For urgent mental health support outside sessions:

Clinical Supervision & Best Practice

I receive regular clinical supervision from accredited peers, in line with best practice. All supervision is confidential and bound by the same ethical standards I adhere to in therapy.

Consent to Therapy

By attending therapy, you acknowledge that you are engaging voluntarily in psychological treatment and that you are responsible for any actions or decisions you take as a result of the work.
