Kate Heavey BA (Hons) FdSc BACP (Accredited). Online and Telephone Single-Session Therapy across the UK.
Single-session therapy is a focused space to think clearly, understand what is happening, and leave with something that feels useful.
Sometimes you may not be looking for ongoing therapy. You may simply want a space to pause, reflect, and make sense of something that is happening in your life or relationships right now.
Single-Session Therapy offers that space.
Single Session Therapy is offered online across the UK for individuals, couples and twos. Telephone sessions are also available for individuals.
Availability
Please click here and my availability calendar will open up.
I complete my availability 6 days in advance so if I do not currently have a single-session available which suits you, do check back or email me.
Note: I do not hold a waiting list for Single-Session Therapy.
Single-Session Therapy
Single-Session therapy is a focused therapeutic encounter. At the beginning of the session, we explore what you would like to come away with.
We then work with what is happening within you, rather than trying to rush towards fixing anything.
Where it is helpful, I may share reflections or observations, always in a collaborative and respectful way.
By the end of the session, you are likely to have a clearer understanding of your situation, feel more settled and have a sense of what your next steps might be.
Who is Single-Session Therapy for?
Single-Session therapy can be helpful if you:
- Want space to think something through without committing to ongoing therapy
- Are feeling overwhelmed and want clarity
- Are facing a decision or life change
- Want to understand a relationship more clearly
- Are curious about therapy but unsure where to start
It is available for individuals, couples and twos.
The focus of our work
Although the session is brief, the approach remains relational.
Your session may involve looking at patterns, relationships or the context around your experiences. At other times it may be about gaining a different perspective, or putting words to something that has been difficult to express.
There is no pressure to go deeper than feels right for you in a single session.
What you will need
For the session to feel useful, it is important that you have a private and comfortable space where you feel able to talk openly.
Can I return for further Single-Session Therapy sessions?
Of course. We will discuss your options towards the closing of your session. If you have found it helpful and want to book further single sessions, you book in exactly the same way as your first. This may be straight away, or many months down the line.
If you feel that, after your session, you would like to move to regular weekly sessions, that is also possible. I would let you know my weekly availability at that point.
As these are single-sessions, additional single-sessions would be subject to my own availability and are booked on the same link by clicking here .
Cost
Individuals – 55 minutes - £65
Couples / twos – 55 minutes - £85
Sessions are 55 minutes rather than 60 to allow me time to email you anything we agreed during the session afterwards.
Contracting
When you book a session, I will email you a single-session therapy contract to complete, along with a General Data Protection Regulation document. The contract asks for your name, address, doctor details, date of birth and details of any medication.
Closing thought
Sometimes one hour is all it takes to see something differently.
And sometimes seeing something differently is all it takes to change everything.
