    Fee

    My fee is:
    £120 for individual therapy and couples therapy.

    Each session lasts 50 minutes.

    The fee is payable by cash, cheque or card payment at the end of each session.

    Please note that if you pay by bank card, my name may appear on your bank statement.



    Reduced fee

    I am aware that free services and support can be hard to access, with long waiting list on the NHS or in charity organisations.

    I support various charity organisations providing free counselling by making a monthly contribution.

    Unfortunately, I do not currently offer reduced fee sessions because all my reduced fee appointments are fully booked. Due to high demand, I have also closed my waiting list as it is full.

    For reduced fee consultations: Please contact directly Guillermo Llorca Diaz, one of the psychosexual & relationship therapists whom I clinically supervise, Here

    Online Therapy - Worldwide

    I recognise that it is not always easy to access a specialist psychotherapist in some rural areas of the UK or in some parts of the world. For this reason, I offer an online service to those who can't access specialist therapy face-to-face.

    I offer online therapy for:
  • Individuals with sexual and relationship problems
  • Individuals with compulsive sexual behaviours & problematic porn use, and their partners
  • Survivors of childhood sexual abuse
  • Individuals and couples identifying as LGBTQ

    Please note that EMDR therapy is not possible online.

    Before engaging in online therapy, please make sure that your internet connection is good enough and fast enough to be able to sustain a FaceTime, VSee or Zoom call.
    Make sure that you are in a quiet and confidential room where you can't be overheard.

    For an enquiry: e-mail me: [email protected]
    My fee for online therapy is £80, payable by bank transfer two working days before the scheduled appointment.
    Please note that if you pay by bank card, my name may appear on your bank statement.

    My privacy policy


  • My consultations with you are confidential.

  • Professional and ethical guidelines require me to have regular clinical supervision to discuss my work with my clients. Consultations with my clinical supervisor are also confidential.

  • In the event that we see each other outside of our sessions (in the street, or in a shop, for example), I will not acknowledge you unless you acknowledge me first. This is to maintain your confidentiality.

  • Couples therapy: I usually work with both partners together. Occasionally, I may have a one-to-one session with each partner. The one-to-one session is kept confidential. It is the responsibility of each partner to disclose to each other the conversations held during their one-to-one meeting. I will not disclose conversations. It means that I may hold information that has not been disclosed by one of the partners.

  • The circumstances that require the breach of confidentiality are:
    1 - If I am sufficiently concerned that you may harm yourself or a third party.
    2 - Children or vulnerable adults being at significant risk of harm currently (current sexual, physical, psychological or financial abuse)
    3 - Acts of terrorism
    4 - Drug or people trafficking
    5 - Money laundering
    6 - I may be subpoenaed by a court to give evidence under oath.

  • If you pay my fee by bank card, my name may appear on your bank statement.

  • I abide by the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) (2018)

  • The personal information I hold about you (name, home address, e-mail address, telephone number, medical history, etc.) is stored in a locked cupboard. Only I have access to it.

  • I do not share any data about you to third parties.

  • You have the right to request your personal information to be corrected or erased at any time, in writing. For legal purposes, I have to keep some data about you. We can discuss your requirements and come to an agreement together.

  • In the event of my sudden incapacity to work, a professional executor will take responsibility for my clients, in which case your identity would be disclosed to the executor. Executors are bound by the same professional and ethical guidelines of confidentiality.

  • I write brief notes about what I discuss with you in sessions. Your notes are kept electronically and are encrypted. Only I have access to them. I don’t write your name or any other people’s names on my notes to maintain confidentiality. You have the right to request a copy of your notes, in writing.

  • Clinical notes on couples therapy remains the confidential material of the couple relationship and one partner cannot request access without the consent of the other. I will meet your request within one month, without charge.

  • I keep all the information I hold about you, including notes, for seven years after the end of therapy. After seven years I destroy all data and notes I have about you.

  • If you fall ill during a consultation, I will call the emergency services and disclose your name and any medications you take.

  • For the purpose of training and writing for the contribution to the field of psychotherapy, I may use some materials of what I discuss with my clients for case studies. When doing so, all of my clients’ identifying information are disguised to ensure confidentiality. Before starting therapy, you will have the opportunity to opt in authorising me to do so, or not.

  • I will use your preferred methods of contact: e-mails, texts or phone calls. Please note that these methods are not secure, therefore we cannot guarantee complete confidentiality. It is best not to discuss or write personal or sensitive information on a text or in an e-mail. If you require me to e-mail clinical notes with sensitive and personal information about you, I will do so in the form of a password-protected document.

  • In the event that I need to make a referral to another appropriate professional, you will have the opportunity to opt in to authorise me to do so, or not.
