What services do you offer?

Individual and Couples Therapy

Most people we work with have a series of sessions as an individual or a couple. This can range from relatively short term therapy lasting 6-12 sessions to working together over several years and everything in between.

We can discuss with you what would be most suitable for your needs.

Clarity Consultations

We offer assessments lasting 1-6 sessions to clarify the nature of your difficulties and what approaches to therapy would be the most helpful to you.

This might involve a series of meetings with one of our therapists and a written report. This may be helpful to you if you are not in a position to fund long term therapy but would like to know what would be helpful to you. It may also be helpful for you if you wish to have a second opinion and recommendations to take to another provider. 

Online Groups and Courses

These can be used alongside therapy with us or other providers or for self help and personal development. Dr Ruth Ann is currently putting together The Nurture Programme for abuse survivors. Please check back regularly as we expand these resources.

Consultation for Colleagues

Dr Ruth Ann is happy to see colleagues for ongoing supervision or consultation regarding clinical work. This might be regarding seeing someone who is dealing with issues of narcissism and wanting support for how best to manage the therapeutic relationship or consultation regarding how best to support someone who is in or has left an abusive relationship.

What are your fees?

Our fees vary depending on the nature and complexity of the work and which therapist you are seeing. They range from £150 - £250 for a one hour session with higher fees being charged if the work involves a lot of ongoing liaison with other professionals.

Where are you based?

We are based in the UK and work remotely via video link which means we can meet you anywhere in the world.

We can see people in other countries if you agree that the work will be carried out under UK jurisdiction.

Decisions to work with people in other countries are made on a case by case basis. This might not be a suitable option if you require ongoing mental health care from local services, if you are suicidal or there are significant concerns for your safety. In these circumstances it is better to have local support. However, in other circumstances if you feel our expertise will be helpful to you, we are willing and able to see you in another country. 

Do you accept insurance?

We can accept some UK based insurance policies including BUPA Global, WPA and AVIVA. We do not currently accept AXA or BUPA.

However, please be aware that not all our therapists accept all insurers. Please let us know when enquiring if you wish to use insurance to cover the cost of therapy with us and we will do our best to match you with a therapist who is a good fit to support you and accepts your insurance.

Insurers from other countries are unlikely to fund assessment or therapy with us but occasional exceptions have been made for highly specialised assessment and treatment for people with Narcissistic Personality Disorder who have not been able to find suitable help locally. We can provide an outline and predicted costs for your insurer but cannot support you with your claim.
