About My Therapy Sessions & Fees

I aim to keep therapy pricing clear, transparent, and accessible, while providing professional support tailored to your individual needs.

Therapy is an investment in your emotional wellbeing, relationships, confidence, and long-term mental health. My goal is to provide compassionate and professional support at competitive pricing within the private counselling market.

Therapy prices can vary depending on factors such as therapist qualifications, session length, therapy specialism, assessment requirements, and whether support is delivered online or face-to-face. At Greener Avenues Therapy, I aim to keep pricing straightforward and easy to understand, without hidden costs or pressure.

My Approach

Affordable therapy is not simply about choosing the lowest hourly therapy rate. It is about finding meaningful, professional support that feels safe, ethical, and suited to your individual needs.

My approach is integrative and rooted in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, alongside Compassion Focused Therapy and Person-Centred Therapy. This allows sessions to be adapted to your needs, rather than following a rigid or one-size-fits-all model.

I work with adults experiencing challenges such as anxiety, depression, trauma, self-esteem difficulties, relationship challenges, infertility, pregnancy-related anxiety, postnatal depression, parenthood struggles, life transitions, and emotional difficulties related to pregnancy, birth, and early parenthood. 

My work is guided by compassion, collaboration, and evidence-based practice, with the aim of creating a safe, non-judgemental space where you feel heard and supported.

 What You Can Expect

Initial Consultation

I offer a free 30-minute telephone consultation for prospective clients. This gives you the opportunity to ask questions, discuss what support you are looking for, and decide whether therapy feels right for you.

Assessment Session

The initial therapy assessment session lasts 60 minutes and is charged at £50. During this session, we will explore your current difficulties, therapy goals, and complete relevant assessment questionnaires where appropriate.

Ongoing Counselling Sessions

Standard face-to-face and online counselling sessions are 50 minutes long. Face-to-face sessions are charged at £65, while online sessions are charged at £60. 

Specialist infertility counselling and perinatal mental health support sessions are 50 minutes long and charged at £70 per session.

Sessions are adapted to your individual needs and can be either short or long term depending on the support you are looking for. We also offer discounts for block bookings of multiple sessions - please contact me if you’d like more information.



Face-To-Face & Online Counselling

I offer both in-person and online therapy sessions to provide flexibility for clients across Edinburgh.

Face-to-face sessions take place from a private room within Infinity Skin Clinic, 5A Grange Road, Edinburgh, EH9 1UH.

Online counselling sessions are delivered securely via video call through the Write Upp platform, allowing clients from anywhere in the UK to access support from home or another comfortable environment.

This can be particularly helpful for:

  • busy parents
  • professionals
  • clients experiencing anxiety
  • those with limited flexibility for travel

Experience & Professional Support

As a BACP-accredited therapist, I bring experience from both NHS and private practice settings alongside a commitment to providing ethical, professional, and compassionate care, supported through ongoing professional development and adherence to BACP standards. 

Having personally experienced major life transitions myself, including relocating countries and becoming a parent, I understand how overwhelming periods of change can feel. These experiences help me offer a grounded and empathetic approach in therapy.

Greener Avenues Therapy also offers competitive pricing within the Edinburgh private counselling market while maintaining a high standard of personalised and professional support.

You can read more about the professional counselling standards through the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, or you can  learn more about my background and therapeutic approach here
