How does it work?
Usually you talk with a therapist for one hour, once a week. But we are very
flexible, when you first visit us we can talk about the best way that we can
work with you.
How do I contact you?
Telephone us on 07866 733223 or
email
us to arrange a meeting.
Where are you?
Our therapy rooms are two kilometres north of Nottingham city centre. You must
have an appointment before visiting and we will give you directions when you
have made an appointment.
Can you visit me?
Yes.
Can you help my friend?
Yes, contact us to discuss this and we'll work with you to find a way to help
them.
What will happen when I arrive?
We will tell you what we can do and how it works and you can ask any questions
you want to ask.
Who will know what I have told you?
We will not tell anyone what you talk to us about, except:
- If you tell us to talk to someone and what you want them to know
- If you are going to hurt someone
- If you, or someone you know, is going to be hurt
- If a court tells us to (this is very rare).
Do you charge?
No. If you are not working, or have no money, we will not ask you for a fee.
How long does it last?
As long as it takes. There is no fixed treatment time and you will be able to
talk with us about your needs and work out a plan for us to work with you.
Can you help me with other problems?
When you meet us you will be in a safe place where you can talk about your
problems. If we can help you we will, if we know people who can help you we will
help you ask them.
