I generally have timeslots available Monday - Thursday 9am-9pm.
I do not usually offer Friday, Saturday or Sunday sessions, however when no other suitable timeslots are available I will happily open up a timeslot on these days.
Sessions typically last for 50 minutes, (60 minutes for couples).
Appointments can be made by using the contact tab on this website (anytime) or on my mobile 07531 947351 (Daily 8:30am - 8:30pm) or by email laurahawkinscounselling@outlook.com.
I also offer home visits as an option for those who cannot travel to me, there are a number of checks that I complete prior to any sort of home visit and additional charges may apply for travel etc.

Individuals - £50 per session - 50 minutes
Couples / Relationships - £65 per session - 60 minutes

Please note, this rate is applicable for those clients who are working towards their counselling diploma or counselling courses whereby there is a requirement to complete a set number of sessions. You do not need to complete all sessions with me to achieve this rate but do need proof of course.
Reflective Practitioner group sessions - £100 - 60 minutes (for up to 10 colleagues, hourly price includes all materials required for the session). The venue is to be provided by the employer. Travel and associated costs to the venue is included in my hourly rate.
Concessional Rates - If affordability is an issue, please ask about discounted sessions. Generally if I have availability, I am happy to offer reduced price sessions for those unable to pay the full price fee.
Depending on my workload, it might be that the rates are only offered at times where I incur less charges or are my less popular timeslots. These rates are normally based upon affordability, after the initial session. Please don't be embarrassed to ask.
I work alongside a number of local GP surgeries.
Cancellations - Unfortunately I do charge a cancellation fee if a session is cancelled at short notice as I incur my own costs and often have a waiting list for certain timeslots; we would talk about the suitability of this depending on the circumstances as I appreciate that sometimes things happen which are out of our control.
Individuals - I charge £50 per session
