FAQs ...
How long and how often are sessions?
Individual sessions are usually weekly but can be fortnightly.
Fortnightly often works better for couples and families.
All sessions are 50mins in length
What are your fees and how do I pay?
Individuals: €80
Two or more people: €120
Payment can be in cash or card.
Are you fully-accredited for health insurance?
Yes, I am a fully accredited member of the FTAI (Family Therapy Association of Ireland) and the ICP (Irish Council of Psychotherapy).
You may also be able to have some of your fees reimbursed as they are now recognised as a qualifing expense by the revenue. More info available here
What if I have to cancel an appointment?
In the event that you need to cancel a scheduled appointment the following applies:
48 hours: No fee will be due and the appt can be rescheduled.
Less than 24 hours notice: 50% fee will be due
No notice or no show: 100% fee will be due
Once the cancellation fee has been settled, you are free to reschedule another appointment.
Where do you work from?
My face-to-face sessions are in Insight Matters. A wonderfully inclusive therapeutic centre on Capel Street, Dublin 1.
I also provide online therapy, or a mix of both, depending on your preference and availability.
What about confidentiality?
I work in accordance with ICP and FTAI Codes of Ethics and follow Children First guidelines for the protection and welfare of children.
A confidential service is provided, except in the following circumstances:
-
Where there is a danger of a client being harmed or causing harm to self or others.
-
Where there are reasonable grounds for concern that a child may be at risk of abuse by someone.
-
Where the therapist is subpoenaed by a court of law.
Should a third party need to be informed in such situations, where possible this will first be discussed with you.
