Scope and Suitability
You do not need a diagnosis to begin counselling, and an existing diagnosis does not necessarily prevent us from working together.
My practice is not a medical or diagnostic service, and I do not provide diagnoses, diagnostic assessments, medication, or reports for insurance or legal purposes. If your needs fall outside my scope or require medical care, diagnostic assessment, crisis support, or specialist psychotherapy, I will discuss this openly with you and help you consider appropriate additional or alternative support.
Your First Session
The first session is a gentle opportunity to get to know one another and begin exploring what you’d like help with.
Getting to Know You What brings you to counselling, what matters now and what you hope to gain.
We’ll explore what brings you to counselling, what feels most important now, and what you hope to gain from therapy.
Going at Your Pace There is no need to prepare, rush or tell your whole story at once.
You do not need to prepare or tell your whole story straight away. We’ll work at your pace, and you can ask questions, slow down, or approach something differently.
Finding the Right Fit A chance for both of us to see whether working together feels right.
The first session gives us both a chance to see whether working together feels right. If another professional or service may better suit your needs, I’ll discuss this openly with you.
Ongoing & Ending Therapy Session frequency, regular reviews and bringing therapy to a thoughtful close.
Ongoing Sessions
Sessions are usually weekly or fortnightly and may be short-term or open-ended, with regular reviews.
Ending Counselling
You can end counselling at any time. Where possible, I recommend a final session to reflect on our work and bring the therapy to a thoughtful close.
Policies & Practical Details
Insurance and reduced fees Private payment, possible supplementary reimbursement and limited reduced-fee spaces.
Coverage and reimbursement
Sessions are paid privately and are not covered by basic health insurance. Some supplementary plans may reimburse part of the cost, so please check directly with your insurer.
Reduced fees
A limited number of reduced-fee spaces are available for students or those on lower incomes.
Confidentiality and privacy How confidentiality, supervision and personal data are handled.
Confidentiality
Counselling is confidential. I will not disclose identifiable information without your explicit consent, except where disclosure is required or authorised by law, or where there is a serious risk of harm and disclosure is legally and ethically justified. Wherever possible, I would discuss this with you before taking any action.
Professional supervision
I discuss my work in professional supervision, using anonymised information so that clients are not identifiable.
Your personal data
Information about how your data is handled can be found in the Privacy Policy.
Payment Invoices, payment timescales and unpaid balances.
Invoices are sent after each session and payment is due within 7 days by bank transfer. If fees remain unpaid, future sessions may be paused until the balance is settled.
Cancellation policy Notice periods, late arrivals, missed sessions and practitioner cancellations.
Cancellations, late arrivals and rescheduling
Please provide at least 48 hours' notice if you need to cancel or reschedule a session. Sessions cancelled with less than 48 hours' notice will be charged at the full fee, except in cases of genuine emergency (e.g. sudden illness or urgent circumstances).
Timekeeping and missed sessions
If you arrive late, the session will still end at the scheduled time and the full fee will apply. If you are unable to attend and I have not heard from you, I will wait for 15 minutes. After this time, the session will be considered a missed appointment and charged in full.
Frequent changes
If sessions are frequently rescheduled, cancelled at short notice, or missed, we may take time to review whether the current arrangement continues to support the work.
Practitioner cancellations
If I need to cancel due to illness or unforeseen circumstances, I will give as much notice as possible and offer an alternative time. You will not be charged for sessions I cancel.
Crisis Support
My practice does not provide crisis or emergency support. If you are in Switzerland and are in immediate danger or experiencing a mental health crisis, call 144 or Die Dargebotene Hand on 143. Outside Switzerland, contact your local emergency services or an appropriate crisis support service.
