Returning clients - if there has been a gap of over 5 weeks since your last appointment please email me first to discuss. There will be a short wait on your return due to high demand.

I am not currently taking new clients. You are very welcome to contact in 2025 when some availability will open.

For current, regular clients - the booking link is below. In 2025 online booking will no longer be used, therefore only Nov and Dec are visible. Moving forward, bookings will be made in-session or via email.

Upcoming changes

Over the next few months I will be making changes to how appointments are approached.

Historically there has been a lot of flexibility; with people changing frequency in attendance and past clients popping back with life’s ups and downs. Somehow it all magically evened out. But the balance has tipped, and this level of flexibility isn’t proving sustainable or equitable.

I’ll email soon with more details, but broadly speaking changes will include:

• Asking people to be clear about the frequency they intend to attend, and to keep that relatively consistent (once my calendar allows for it)

• A stricter cancellation policy. If a pattern of cancellation emerges we will review to check commitment or possible need for alternative services (cancellation ultimately mean a person is using 2 spaces, the original space, and the one they reschedule to)

• I will mark people as ‘closed’ if they have dropped off for a period, and a wait-time will apply on return according to my availability (to avoid multiple people returning at once)

• Getting more intentional about endings rather than shifting to sporadic attendance (so that I can more realistically predict my availability).

• People will be welcome to return after gaps and endings, but there will be a wait list according to availability.

This November, I will have been in private practice for 7 years. It make sense that habits which evolved from the beginning need some re-thinking. I look forward to smoothing out the calendar so that there is space for some new projects and workshops arriving in 2025.
