I determine my fees based on a combination of the financial situation of each individual client, and the average fees across my caseload. Doing this allows me to charge less for those on lower incomes and better serve the whole community by making my services available to a wider range of people. So, while my standard charge is £100 per session, I have some spaces available at lower rates. The number of sessions I can offer at these lower rates is dependent on the number of clients able to pay the standard and, in particular, the higher rates; the more clients who are willing and able to pay higher fees, the more clients to whom I can offer lower fees. As illustrated below, if you can afford it, I ask that high and very high earners consider paying more, to facilitate this.

 
I always discuss and agree fees with each client on an individual basis, which we can do via email, or in our initial consultation (for which there is no charge at all, regardless of your financial situation). The structure below is intended as an overview, and need not be adhered to rigidly - if you feel able to pay somewhere between one of the standard rates, please let me know, and I would be happy to discuss this with you.

​

Update on current availability: I am now at capacity for in-person sessions in Peckham. I have very limited availability for remote/online sessions and am currently operating below my standard fee on average. You are still welcome to get in touch, e.g., if you would like to meet/discuss your needs with a view to being added to my waiting list, or if you are interested in online therapy at my standard fee or above.
