About Richard Absalom
The Specifics.

The Approach
The approach is kind, genuine and non-judgmental. I am always sensitive to what it feels like, to come to therapy. During our initial sessions, we will delve into the issues at hand, and collaborate to create a plan for addressing them in a way that helps you get your life back. Most of my clients see a gradual lifting of symptoms within the first month and sustained improvement thereafter.
I draw on experience from working in the NHS, private and charity sectors. I have worked as a counselling lecturer, and have also been a trustee for a large mental health charity.
Fees
From £80 for Individual Psychotherapy and Counselling. £90 for Couples Relationship Therapy. Please contact me for details of my fees for Hypnotherapy.
The First Session
The first session is a chance for you to explore how it feels to work together. It is focused on you, and what you want to achieve by working with me. I will explain how I work, and if we feel we are a good fit, off we go.
