Single Session Therapy

What is single session therapy?

Single session therapy is one focused session to bring one issue or area of difficulty and work together to understand it better, explore your options, and leave with something practical or meaningful to take forward.

I’m trained in single-session work for individuals only, and can be booked either online or in person.

What to Expect

How it’s different

Unlike ongoing therapy, which often involves exploring long-term patterns or histories, single session therapy is present-focused and pragmatic, meaning we get to the heart of the matter as quickly and thoughtfully as we can. I draw on solution-focused and strengths-based approaches which essentially means we’ll look at what’s already working, what you want to be different, and how to get from here to there.

GET IN TOUCH

A one-off session might be a good fit for you if:

You’re facing a specific issue and want help figuring out your next steps

You want to try counselling and see how it feels

You’re not sure if you really “need” therapy, but something doesn’t feel right

You’d like support quickly and without committing to longer-term work

You’re more interested in moving forward than unpacking the past

You want to feel heard and understood around one specific concern

What to expect

The session lasts 50 minutes and costs £80

At the start of the session, we’ll clarify what you want to focus on and what a useful outcome would look like as this helps us stay anchored to your agenda and make the most of our time.

Because we won’t have the usual time to build up context or therapeutic relationship, it’s most helpful if you come with an idea of what you’d like to use the session for.

Done with intention, one session can:

Help you feel seen, heard and understood

Bring clarity to what’s going on

Identify helpful next steps or options

Shift the way you’re thinking or feeling about an issue

You might leave with a plan or new perspective, or just the relief of having talked things through.

Want to book?

Please outline your reasons for choosing a single session when you get in touch. This helps me get a sense that it’s the right kind of support for what you’re bringing. There’s never any pressure to continue beyond a single session but you’re welcome to return for further support in the future if it feels helpful.
