Counselling with Christine Johnson
In order to ensure the best service for each person, I invite you to an introductory session. This allows us to meet and discuss your needs. After agreeing to work together, we decide on a plan which will be flexible but focussed. I normally suggest a review date after six weeks to look at our progress.
 
I am home-based in Bristol, BS11, Shirehampton,  where I see clients in a comfortable, private room. My counselling room is accessible via its own door. There is usually parking available on the road just outside the house. There are a few steps up to the house; wheelchair access is not possible.
 
There is no waiting room so please only arrive a few minutes before the appointment. I organise my appointments so that there is no chance of bumping into other clients if you arrive a few minutes before your agreed time.
 
I charge £40.00 for 50 minutes for adults and children, but I am willing to discuss reduced rates in some circumstances.
 
Please contact me if you have any questions by text, phone or email.
