Private Psychologist in London

Your initial session is a chance for your private psychologist to get to know you and understand your concerns. You’ll be asked about your current difficulties, emotional wellbeing, and personal history. Together, you’ll begin to explore the goals you’d like to work towards and discuss a tailored treatment plan to suit your needs.

The frequency of psychological therapy depends on your individual circumstances and goals. Most people begin with weekly or fortnightly sessions, with frequency reducing over time as progress is made. Your psychologist will recommend a schedule that offers both consistency and flexibility as part of your treatment plan.

The number of therapy sessions you have will depend on the treatment plan that your psychologist has created with you. During the diagnostic and treatment plan process, you will be able to talk with your psychologist about how long your treatment will be.
