Sessions take place online via Zoom. You will receive a private link to join your session.You can join from home or another suitable place, provided you have enough privacy to speak freely and are unlikely to be interrupted.

Choose somewhere private, comfortable and reasonably quiet.Being able to speak without worrying about being overheard usually makes it easier to settle into the session. For hypnotherapy and past-life regression, it is also helpful to be somewhere you can sit or recline comfortably without needing to attend to anything else.

A stable connection is more important than having exceptionally fast internet.If your connection normally handles video calls reliably, it will usually be suitable. Where possible, I recommend having at least 5 Mbps upload and download available and using a strong Wi-Fi or wired connection.It can also help to pause large downloads, cloud backups or high-quality streaming while we are meeting.I will provide more detailed guidance when arranging your session if needed.

A computer or tablet is usually easiest because it can be positioned securely and gives us a comfortable view of one another.A phone can also be used if necessary. Whichever device you choose, make sure it is stable, sufficiently charged or plugged in, and that the camera and microphone are working properly.

Place your device somewhere stable where we can see and hear one another comfortably.You do not need to sit rigidly in front of the camera. The aim is simply to have a natural position that allows us to communicate easily without you needing to hold or continually adjust the device.For hypnotherapy or regression, we can discuss positioning beforehand if you would prefer to sit back or recline.

Headphones are optional for psychotherapy but can help with privacy and reduce background distractions.For hypnotherapy and past-life regression, I generally recommend them if they are comfortable for you, as hearing my voice clearly can help you remain absorbed in the experience.They are not essential, and comfort is more important than using a particular setup.

Where possible, let other people know that you would prefer not to be disturbed and silence unnecessary phone, computer and doorbell notifications.For hypnotherapy and regression in particular, it is worth making sure anything that may need your attention — such as pets, deliveries or other responsibilities — has been taken care of beforehand.

Occasional connection problems happen and there is no need to worry.We will normally try to reconnect and continue the session. At the beginning of our work we can also agree a simple backup plan in case Zoom stops working.If you are in hypnosis or regression when the connection is lost, you cannot become stuck in hypnosis. Without my voice continuing to guide you, you will naturally return to your usual level of awareness.

If repeated connection problems make it difficult for us to communicate or safely continue the work, we may need to stop and rearrange the session.This is particularly important during hypnotherapy and regression, where repeated interruptions can make it difficult to maintain the focused experience.

It is worth checking that:your device is charged or plugged in;your camera and microphone are working;your internet connection is stable;you have somewhere private and comfortable;unnecessary notifications and downloads are paused.For hypnotherapy and regression, I will give you any additional preparation guidance before the session.

You can book a psychotherapy, hypnotherapy or past-life regression session directly from the relevant service page.If you would prefer to talk first, you can also arrange a free 20-minute initial conversation. This gives you an opportunity to ask questions, tell me a little about what you are looking for and get a sense of whether working together feels right.There is no obligation to continue afterwards.

No. If you feel comfortable that the service is right for you, you are welcome to book directly.The free 20-minute conversation is there if you would prefer to ask questions or get a sense of me and the way I work before deciding.

Psychotherapy sessions are £70 for 60 minutes.Hypnotherapy and past-life regression sessions are £95 for 90 minutes, with additional time allowed in the diary where needed so the session does not have to end abruptly.Other psychotherapy options, including four-session booking and private messaging, have their own fees shown on the Psychotherapy page.

Payment is made in advance when you book your session.Payments are processed securely through Wix as part of the booking process, so your appointment is confirmed once the payment has been completed.If you are booking a four-session psychotherapy option or another package, the full amount is paid in advance at the time of booking.

If you need to cancel or rearrange a session, please give at least 24 hours’ notice.Sessions cancelled with less than 24 hours’ notice are normally charged in full, although I recognise that genuine emergencies sometimes happen.

With at least 24 hours’ notice, we can normally arrange another suitable time.

If you arrive late, we can usually continue with the time remaining, but the session will normally still finish at the originally agreed time.If something unexpected has delayed you, let me know when you can.

If I ever need to cancel or rearrange a session, I will give you as much notice as I reasonably can and we will arrange another suitable time.You would not be charged for a session that I cancel.

No. You can begin with a single session and there is no requirement to commit to a fixed number of sessions.If you decide to continue with psychotherapy, however, I usually recommend establishing a regular weekly appointment at the same time where possible. Having a consistent space in both our diaries gives the therapy continuity, removes the need to negotiate a new appointment each week, and helps the therapeutic relationship and the work itself develop over time.I also understand that work, family and other commitments do not always allow for a fixed weekly time, so there is flexibility where needed.If you already know you would like some continuity, you can also choose the four-session psychotherapy booking, which offers four sessions in advance at a reduced rate.

The four-session psychotherapy option is paid for in advance at a reduced rate and the sessions can be used within one year.If you decide not to use all four sessions, the unused sessions are non-refundable.

Yes. You are not committed to remaining in therapy for a fixed period.If we have been working together regularly, I would usually encourage us to talk about your decision to finish rather than simply disappearing from the process. Ending therapy can itself be a useful part of the therapeutic work.That does not mean you need my permission to stop.

Yes.Psychotherapy sessions booked individually are £70, while the four-session option works out at £65 per session.Clients using the monthly private messaging service can also book psychotherapy sessions at the reduced rate of £65 per session.

Yes. What you tell me in therapy is treated as confidential, but confidentiality is not absolute.I will disclose information where I am legally required to do so. I may also disclose relevant information without your consent if I believe this is necessary to protect you or another person from serious harm, or where there are safeguarding concerns involving a child or vulnerable adult.I do not need your permission to make a disclosure in these circumstances.Where it is appropriate and safe to do so, I may discuss the situation with you first. However, I may not do this if informing you could increase the risk of harm, interfere with a safeguarding or police investigation, or if I am legally prevented from doing so.I also discuss my therapeutic work in professional supervision. Wherever possible, identifying information is removed or minimised, and supervision itself is treated confidentially.

Yes. Confidentiality is not absolute.I will disclose information where I am legally required to do so. I may also disclose relevant information without your consent if I believe this is necessary to protect you or another person from serious harm, or where there are safeguarding concerns involving a child or vulnerable adult.Any disclosure would be limited to information that is relevant and reasonably necessary in the circumstances.

Yes. I discuss my therapeutic work in professional supervision as part of maintaining safe, thoughtful and professionally accountable practice.Supervision is itself confidential. Wherever possible, identifying details are removed or minimised so that the focus remains on the therapeutic work rather than on your identity.

I may keep information needed to provide the service safely and effectively, such as your contact details, appointment information, relevant correspondence and appropriate therapeutic records.Because therapy can involve information about mental or physical health, some of this may be classed as special category data under UK data-protection law and therefore receives additional protection.

WMiH is based in the UK, so personal information is handled in accordance with the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018.This means information should be collected for a clear purpose, limited to what is reasonably necessary, kept appropriately secure and not retained indefinitely without a reason.Health information receives additional protection because UK GDPR treats it as special category personal data.

I use Zoom for online sessions and take reasonable steps to protect the privacy of our conversations, including using private meeting links and appropriate meeting security settings.Zoom provides privacy and security controls designed to support organisations in meeting requirements such as the UK/EU GDPR, and Zoom Meetings is covered by Zoom’s ISO 27701 privacy-management certification.For organisations subject to HIPAA in the United States, Zoom can also support HIPAA-compliant working arrangements through appropriate safeguards and, where required, a Business Associate Agreement. HIPAA compliance depends on how Zoom is configured and used and is not something Zoom describes as a blanket certification.You can also help protect your privacy by joining from somewhere private and using a device and internet connection you trust.

For psychotherapy and analytical hypnotherapy, I can offer an AI-generated summary of the session through Zoom AI Companion.Some clients find this useful as a way of reflecting on what we discussed, noticing themes that emerged and returning to the conversation afterwards.The summary is generated from speech-to-text information from the session. I can review it before it is shared with you, and you do not have to have an AI summary if you would prefer not to.I will explain how the feature works and how the information is handled before using it.

Psychotherapy sessions are not routinely recorded, although I can record a session if you specifically request this and we agree that it would be useful.Hypnotherapy sessions can also be recorded by agreement. Some people find having a recording reassuring, particularly if they feel uncertain about what it will be like to be in hypnosis, and it can also give you an opportunity to revisit the experience afterwards.For past-life regression, I strongly recommend recording the session. Being able to watch or listen back can be an interesting part of the experience, particularly because you may notice details afterwards that you were less aware of while deeply absorbed in the session.A session will only be recorded with your knowledge and agreement. Zoom will also notify you when recording begins.Where a recording is provided through Zoom, I will explain how you can access or download it and how long it will remain available.

UK data-protection law gives people rights in relation to their personal information, including rights of access and, in appropriate circumstances, correction, restriction or deletion.Some rights depend on the circumstances and the reason the information is being held, so they are not absolute.If you want to know what information I hold about you, you can contact me and I will explain the appropriate process.

As a UK-based practice, WMiH handles personal information in accordance with UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018.HIPAA is a separate United States framework that applies to particular healthcare organisations and their business associates. Where work involves clients or organisations outside the UK, I consider the privacy, legal and professional requirements relevant to that particular arrangement.

No. Online therapy works well for many people, but it is not appropriate in every situation.My work is intended for people who are able to take part in reflective therapeutic work online and who do not currently need crisis, emergency, specialist psychiatric or multidisciplinary support.If you are unsure, you are welcome to ask before booking.

My services are not a crisis or emergency service.If you are at significant risk of harming yourself or someone else, experiencing an acute mental health crisis, or need immediate support, you should contact the appropriate emergency or crisis service where you live.Find urgent support →

ou should not attend a session if alcohol, recreational drugs or another substance has significantly affected your awareness, judgement or ability to take part safely in the work.If this happens, the session may need to be stopped or rearranged.You do not need to avoid prescribed medication, but please tell me if medication significantly affects your alertness or concentration.

My practice is not designed to provide specialist treatment for active psychosis or presentations requiring psychiatric, multidisciplinary or intensive clinical support.If I believe your needs fall outside the scope of what I can safely and appropriately offer, I will be clear about that and, where possible, suggest a more appropriate type of support.

Possibly.Already receiving therapy does not automatically prevent us from working together, but it is important that you tell me before we begin.Two therapeutic relationships can sometimes work alongside one another, but in other situations they can create confusion or interfere with the work. We can consider what you are already receiving and whether adding another form of therapy would be useful.

Yes. You need somewhere reasonably private and safe where you can speak without feeling monitored or continually interrupted.If your circumstances make it difficult to talk freely, let me know. We can consider whether online work is appropriate or whether there is another way of approaching the situation.

No.You should join from a safe, stationary place where you can give the session your attention.This is especially important for hypnotherapy and past-life regression, where you may become deeply absorbed in the experience.

There may be occasions when I believe my experience, the online format or the level of support I can provide is not the best fit for what you need.If that happens, I will explain this as clearly as I can. Where appropriate, I may suggest that you seek a different type or level of support.

No. You might come with something very specific, or simply with a sense that something in your life, relationships or yourself does not feel quite right.You do not need to arrive with the right words or a clear explanation. We can begin with whatever feels most present and become curious about where it takes us.

The first session gives us time to talk about what has brought you to therapy, what you have been experiencing and what you might want from the work.There is no assessment you need to pass and no expectation that you tell me everything immediately. It is also an opportunity for you to experience how I work and decide whether the relationship feels right for you.

I usually recommend meeting once a week at the same time where possible.Having a regular appointment gives the work continuity, creates a dependable space in both our diaries and removes the repeated friction of arranging a new time every week.I also understand that work, family and other commitments do not always make a fixed weekly appointment possible, so there can be flexibility where needed.

No, but I think it is important to be honest that the deeper benefits of therapy usually develop through regular, ongoing work rather than a single session.A single session can still be useful, particularly if you want to experience therapy, get a feel for me as a therapist or explore something specific.Therapy often involves processes that need time and space to develop. Sometimes a change is taking place before you consciously recognise it, and being able to return to therapy and explore what you are beginning to notice can itself become an important part of the work.For that reason, I encourage people to give therapy a genuine chance rather than expecting one conversation to do everything.

There is no fixed length, but it can help to have a rough idea.If you are coming with something fairly specific — perhaps a recent difficulty, a relationship issue, a decision, or something you need space to talk through — around 4–6 sessions can sometimes be enough to make a meaningful difference.For some people, that is all they need. For others, those first few sessions begin to reveal something deeper: recurring patterns, older experiences, questions about identity, relationships or why certain things affect them in the way they do. In that case, eight sessions or more is common, and the work may continue for many months or longer.It is also not unusual for people to remain in therapy for years. That does not mean they are especially unwell or that therapy has somehow failed. For some people, therapy becomes a regular reflective space that runs alongside life. New experiences, relationships, losses, changes and difficulties continue to arise, while older patterns can also keep unfolding and being understood in new ways.Therapeutic growth is not always something that happens in a neat sequence and then finishes. Sometimes changes are taking place gradually, or outside conscious awareness, and only become noticeable later.I would not expect you to decide at the beginning how long you should stay. We can start with what brings you to therapy, see what develops, and periodically reflect together on whether the work continues to feel useful and worthwhile.

That is completely fine.Silence, uncertainty, not knowing where to begin, changing the subject or finding something difficult to put into words can all be part of therapy.My role is not to wait for you to perform therapy correctly. We can work with whatever is happening between us, including not knowing what to say.

Sometimes, yes — but not always.Different people work well in different ways. Some clients like a more active approach and find it helpful to have exercises, ideas, experiments or something practical to work on between sessions. Others get much more from having a space where they can talk freely, follow what comes up and let the work develop without homework or particular tasks.I tend to work somewhere in the middle. I may offer suggestions, exercises or more direct guidance when that seems useful, but I do not want therapy to become a programme you have to complete.We can work in the way that best fits you, the issue you are bringing and what seems to help the process move forward.

My approach is integrative, with a psychodynamic and relational framework at its centre.For me, being integrative does not mean moving from one therapy technique to another depending on what happens to sound useful that week. I think therapy needs a coherent framework. You bring the experiences, concerns and questions that matter to you, and you have a large part in determining the pace and direction of the work; my role is to hold a therapeutic way of understanding and working with what emerges.That often means being interested in how your history, relationships, patterns, defences and ways of understanding yourself may be influencing life in the present. Where something more practical would be useful, I may also introduce exercises, observations or other ways of working, but these sit within the wider therapeutic process rather than replacing it with a succession of tips and techniques.I also pay attention to some fairly ordinary foundations of wellbeing: sleep and rest, food, movement, relationships, work, interests and other meaningful ways of engaging with life. These are not solutions to every psychological difficulty, but they are part of the context in which our lives are lived. Looking at how these areas are functioning can tell us quite a lot about how you are doing, what may be missing and where change might be possible.So although the therapy is shaped around you, it is not without structure. You bring the life we are trying to understand; I bring a framework for helping us explore it.

My approach is integrative, with a psychodynamic, developmental and relational framework at its centre.In practice, that means I am interested not only in what is happening for you now, but also in how your history, relationships, emotional patterns and ways of protecting yourself may be shaping your present experience.I usually begin from the position that the ways we think, feel, relate and respond have developed for reasons that once made sense in the context of our lives. Rather than rushing to change something, I want us to understand it first. That can reduce shame, make patterns feel less random or fixed, and give us a clearer sense of what may actually need to change.I work collaboratively. You bring the experiences, concerns and questions that matter to you, and you have a large part in determining the pace and direction of the therapy. My role is to provide a coherent therapeutic framework within which we can make sense of what emerges, notice connections and explore how different parts of your experience fit together.The therapeutic relationship is also part of the work. Therapy is not simply a place where you tell me information and I give you advice. The way we relate, what feels easy or difficult to say, what you expect from me, what you avoid, and what happens between us can all become useful information about how you experience relationships more generally.My approach is integrative, but not in the sense of moving randomly from one technique to another. I may draw on person-centred principles, parts-based ways of understanding experience, CBT-informed exercises, behavioural experiments or more practical interventions where they genuinely support the wider therapeutic work. Some clients benefit from structure, exercises and things to work on between sessions; others benefit more from having space to talk and allow the process to unfold. I tend to work somewhere between the two and adapt the level of structure to the person and the work.I also pay attention to the wider foundations on which life is being lived — sleep and rest, food, movement, relationships, work, interests, creativity and other forms of meaningful engagement. These are not simple solutions to psychological difficulties, but they are part of the context in which our emotional lives unfold and can tell us a great deal about how someone is doing.Over time, the work often moves through a process of understanding, making connections, experiencing things differently, integrating what has been learned and then responding differently in life. That process is rarely completely linear. Something may shift internally, you may begin to notice yourself reacting differently, and that new experience then becomes something we can explore together.The aim may be to reduce, resolve or change the symptoms, problems or patterns that are causing difficulty, while also helping you understand yourself more fully and develop greater freedom in how you respond.Sometimes the work is quite focused and practical. At other times, what begins as a particular problem opens into a deeper exploration of how you have learned to relate to yourself, other people and life more generally. In either case, the aim is not simply insight for its own sake, but meaningful change that helps you live with greater agency, flexibility and authenticity.

Yes.Some clients use live psychotherapy sessions alongside the monthly private messaging service. Writing can provide another space for reflection between sessions, while the live sessions give us time to explore things together in greater depth.If you use the messaging service, psychotherapy sessions are also available at the reduced subscriber rate.

Sessions take place online via Zoom, so you can join from a private space where you feel comfortable and are unlikely to be disturbed.

A stable internet connection helps the session run smoothly. If your connection is normally reliable for video calls, it will usually be suitable.Where possible, I recommend having at least 5 Mbps upload and download available, using stable Wi-Fi or a wired connection, and pausing large downloads, cloud backups or high-quality streaming during the session.I’ll provide more detailed guidance when we arrange your session if you need it.

A computer or tablet is usually easiest, although a phone can also be used. Position your device somewhere stable where we can see and hear one another comfortably, and make sure it is charged or plugged in.

Occasional internet problems happen. If we lose the connection, we will normally try to reconnect and continue the session. We can also agree a simple backup plan when we begin.

I usually recommend meeting once a week at the same time where possible. Having a regular appointment tends to make the work feel more settled and consistent, and removes the need to arrange a new time each week.That said, I know people’s lives and commitments vary. If a regular weekly time is not practical, we can agree a pattern that works for you while still giving the therapy enough continuity to be useful.

If you need to cancel or rearrange a session, please give at least 24 hours’ notice.Sessions cancelled with less than 24 hours’ notice are normally charged in full, although I recognise that genuine emergencies sometimes happen.

What you share in therapy is treated confidentially.There are some limited circumstances in which I may need to share information without your consent, including serious concerns about harm to you or someone else, safeguarding concerns involving a child or vulnerable adult, or where I am legally required to disclose information.I also discuss my work in professional supervision. Wherever possible, identifying details are removed.If I believed confidentiality needed to be broken, I would normally discuss this with you first wherever it was safe and legally possible to do so.

No. You might come with something very specific, or simply with a sense that something does not feel quite right. We can begin with whatever feels most present and work from there.

No, but I think it is important to be honest that the deeper benefits of therapy usually develop through regular, ongoing work rather than a single session.One session can still be useful. Sometimes it is exactly what someone needs, and it can also be a good way to experience therapy, get a feel for me as a therapist and notice how you respond to the process.But therapy often has several layers unfolding at once. Some changes take time to develop, and you may not immediately notice that anything has shifted. When you do begin to experience yourself, your relationships or your reactions differently, being able to return to therapy and explore what is happening can become an important part of the work.For that reason, I generally encourage people to give therapy a genuine chance rather than expecting one conversation to do everything.If you are thinking about booking only one session, I would simply be curious about what lies behind that — whether you are testing the waters, looking for help with something very specific, or unsure about committing to therapy. There is no obligation to continue, but some willingness to engage with the process over time can make a real difference.

The first session gives us time to talk about what has brought you to therapy, what you would like help with and what feels most important to you. It also gives you a chance to experience how I work and decide whether working together feels right.
