psychological assessments

A psychological assessment looks in some depth into a persons diffculties and reasons for seeking help so as to determine the most appropriate intervention. One of us will meet with you initially for 1hour and 30 minutes to carry out an assessment.

We believe that therapy is a collaborative process and so this also offers an opportunity to establish whether our service can meet your needs and whether we can work effectively together. If we decide with you to proceed, we shall discuss which is the best therapeutic model for you and the number of sessions.

We are also available to carry out medico-legal assessments depending on the requirements of clients and their legal representatives.

number of sessions

This depends on individual needs and subject to mutual agreement. It is usually between 4 and 24 sessions.

confidentiality

We offer a confidential service. It is however our practice, with your consent, to inform your GP on the commencement and completion of therapy.

Like all qualified therapists we also discuss our cases with a qualified supervisor on a no-names basis.
