MEDICAL OR PSYCHOLOGICAL CONDITIONS

I may ask questions about your medical history to establish any contra-indications to treatment. This will also help to assess whether your health is affecting (or being affected by) the goals you wish to achieve. Please update me of any medical changes.

If you are receiving care or treatment from any medical, healthcare or therapy practitioner, e.g. general practitioner, Psychologist, Psychiatrist or Counselor, you may be asked to seek their permission before any sessions can commence.

ATTENDING YOUR SESSIONS

Please ensure that you are available at your session start time. If you are running late, please let me know as soon as possible. I will do my best to make a full session available, however, as the ability to do this will depend on bookings after your session, this cannot be guaranteed.
