If counselling at The Sanctuary suits you, the first step is to get in touch. This provides an opportunity to discuss any initial questions you may have and to explore whether our approach aligns with your needs, challenges and goals.
Sessions are 50 minutes in duration and are typically held on a weekly or fortnightly basis.
Price of appointments is dependent on therapist and individual circumstances.
Appointments may be scheduled in advance or arranged week by week, depending on your preference.
