Referrals
Patient Referrals
Our preference is for referrals to be forwarded by the professional dealing with the client. This could be a general practitioner; psychiatrist or other mental health professional; solicitor; insurance company or occupational health worker.
Self-referrals are accepted, but we ask that you discuss your requirements with us prior to an initial appointment being made in order to confirm that we are able to meet your needs. Clients will be required to sign a Terms and Conditions form before their initial appointment.
Appointments can be arranged during the day or early evening.
If using health insurance, please check with your insurance provider as to the level of entitlement for psychological treatment available on your policy, including any excess or cost-share you might be liable to pay yourself.
