Fees & Policy

Free - 15 Minutes - A brief introductory conversation to explore what has brought you to counselling and whether working together feels aligned with your needs at this stage.

This is an opportunity to ask any questions you may have about the counselling process, discuss what you are looking for from therapy, and gain a sense of whether the therapeutic relationship feels like a good fit. There is no obligation to proceed beyond the consultation.

£100 - 50 Minutes - A confidential and thoughtfully held space in which to explore your inner world, relationships, life experiences and current challenges.

Counselling offers the opportunity to pause, reflect and deepen your understanding of yourself within a supportive therapeutic relationship. Sessions are guided by your individual needs and carried out at a pace that feels both respectful and sustainable.

Online sessions are available to adults throughout the United Kingdom.

£150 - 90 Minutes - For some clients, additional time allows for a more spacious and unhurried therapeutic experience.

Extended sessions can be particularly valuable when exploring complex life circumstances, significant transitions, longstanding patterns, or experiences that benefit from deeper reflection. The additional time can create greater room to settle into the work, move beyond immediate concerns, and engage more fully with what is emerging.

Many clients choose extended sessions when they wish to work at a slower, more contemplative pace, or when regular weekly appointments are not practical.

£450 - 3 Hours - A dedicated period of protected therapeutic time for those seeking a deeper and more immersive experience of counselling.

Intensive sessions are designed to offer space for sustained reflection on a particular area of life, whether that involves a significant transition, a recurring relational pattern, a question of identity, a period of loss, or a crossroads requiring thoughtful consideration.

The extended format allows the work to unfold without urgency, creating an environment in which insight, understanding and emotional processing can emerge more naturally. Rather than compressing complex experiences into shorter conversations, the session provides room to explore them with care, attention and depth.

Intensive sessions are arranged on an individual basis and may not be suitable for everyone. They are intended as a focused therapeutic offering and are not a substitute for emergency, crisis or urgent mental health support.

£100 – 50 Minutes – A confidential and supportive space to explore and develop a voice that feels authentic, comfortable, healthy, and aligned with your gender identity.

Voice coaching is tailored to your individual goals, whether you're seeking vocal feminisation, masculinisation or a more gender-expansive voice. Sessions progress at a pace that feels comfortable for you, with practical exercises and guidance to build confidence in everyday communication.

Online sessions are available throughout the United Kingdom.

Walled Garden Counselling maintains a small number of reduced-fee spaces in recognition that meaningful therapeutic support should not be entirely inaccessible due to financial circumstances.

These spaces are limited and are offered as availability permits. If you would like to be considered for a future reduced-fee space, you are welcome to join the waitlist and indicate your interest when making contact.

Appointments are reserved exclusively for each client and form part of the consistent therapeutic framework that supports the counselling process.

Should you need to cancel a session, 48 hours' notice is required for a refund. As this time has been set aside specifically for you, appointments cancelled with less than 48 hours' notice are generally non-refundable.

If you wish to reschedule a session, 24 hours' notice is required. Where sufficient notice is provided, every effort will be made to offer an alternative appointment.

Missed appointments and cancellations made without the required notice will be charged at the full session fee.

While this policy is applied consistently, exceptional circumstances may occasionally be taken into consideration at my discretion.

Thank you for your understanding and for helping to preserve the continuity and reliability of the therapeutic space.
