Following your initial contact with Clinical Services if there is a suitable vacancy on our intensive 3x weekly mid fee service we will first arrange a brief telephone call with you.
After speaking to you over the phone, if appropriate, you will be sent a questionnaire. Once this is returned along with your administration fee of £60 we will look at your questionnaire and if appropriate will arrange for you to have a consultation.
You will be offered a consultation with a senior therapist. This consultation is not with the therapist who will offer on-going psychotherapy. The consultation will provide you with an opportunity to explore your needs and readiness for intensive 3x weekly treatment. The consultation meeting is usually in two meetings and the fee is £150. If only one meeting is required the fee is £120. This payment is made directly to the therapist offering you this appointment and is non-refundable.
There is no guarantee that there will be a referral to one of our therapists after the assessment consultation. A decision concerning a potential referral for intensive mid fee therapy will be taken by the Clinical Team after the consultation with the senior therapist. Psychoanalytic psychotherapy 3 x weekly is not always the most suitable form of help and it may be considered that an alternative form of therapy would be more appropriate. The Clinical Team consider each application carefully and may make alternative recommendations.
Reports may be requested, with your permission, if you have had previous contacts and consultations with similar services.
If it is decided that this is not the best form of treatment for you other options will be suggested.
Where possible we do our best to accommodate individual needs with regard to location and times available for therapy.
