Core Counselling & Therapy

Frequently Asked Questions

All therapists in Core practice independently on their own behalf. The therapeutic contract and ongoing contact will be directly between therapist and client.

Should you have any query regarding your data and GDPR, please discuss with your therapist, however, we can confirm that we will use your information strictly for the purpose of making contact in relation to your request for therapeutic support.

How do I make an appointment?

If you click on the Services or Therapists tab and scroll down, you can see information on different types of therapy, and contact details for all our individual therapists. You can contact one or more of them to discuss an appointment and the type of support which you are seeking.

Alternatively, you can send an email to [email protected] where your enquiry will be dealt with confidentially and your email will be deleted once initial in-person contact has been made.

There is generally a waiting list for evening appointments in particular, so let the therapist know about your availability generally.

In crisis situations it will normally be possible to have an initial consultation within 24 hours.

How often will I go to therapy and how long will the sessions be?

Each weekly session will last approx 50 mins. How long you choose to continue attending depends on a number of factors, such as the nature of the issue which brings you to therapy.

An initial agreement of six to ten sessions is usually suggested, which can then be reviewed by both client and therapist as the therapy progresses.

Appointments are generally available Monday to Saturday inclusive, from 8.am to 9.pm by arrangement.

How much will it cost?

The standard cost is €65 – €70 per session. However, we can also offer a sliding scale, with rates negotiable subject to the client’s personal circumstances. This should be discussed with the therapist who meets you for the initial consultation.

The fee is due at the end of each session, and is payable directly to the therapist.
