How to begin therapy, fees and practicalities.​

​​​​​​

Please email me at melissa@melgreentherapy.com or call 07944 690569 to make an appointment for an initial assessment consultation. I will be pleased to arrange a phone call to discuss and answer any initial questions. 

​​​​

I work in person from my therapy consultation room in BS4.

​​​​

My fee per session is £70.  Payment is by bank transfer within one week of your session. 

​​​​

​

Assessment consultation​​​​

​The first time we meet will be an assessment session. It’s a time to speak openly about what brings you to therapy. We will discuss any aims you might have for therapy, and I will offer you my initial assessment of how we might work together.

​​​

The frequency and length of therapy will depend upon the work you want to do in therapy; we will agree on an initial period in the assessment session.​​

 

In the assessment session, you will experience my style of practice, and you can ask any questions you might have.

​​​

The assessment fee is charged at my usual rate of £70.

​​​​

Therapy sessions are usually weekly and on the same day and time each week.  Please attend on time. Sessions last 50 minutes.

​

Cancellation of your therapy session.

I am flexible with holidays and, given a fair amount of notice, will not charge you for sessions you are away from.

Once we have agreed to meet regularly, I will try to reschedule your session if something comes up for you at short notice, but this is not always possible. Sessions cancelled with less than two weeks' notice will incur a cancellation fee of £30.  Sessions cancelled with 72 hours notice, or less are paid for in full.
