Kamalamani - Therapist and mentor in Bishopston, Bristol
Practicalities in coming to see me for therapy or mentoring...

Location.
I work in Bishopston, North Bristol, two miles from the city centre. My practice location is a 10 minute walk from several bus routes (e.g.  Gloucester Road bus routes 75, 76 and the number 20 bus route). There is plenty of street parking in the area during the day. In terms of accessibility, my practice room is up two steps and is situated on the first floor. I'll send you a map and information before your first session.

Session length and cost. I offer therapy sessions arranged at a mutually convenient time by appointment. Most clients come on a weekly basis, although this can be negotiated between us. I charge £37 per session for a 50 minute session of therapy or mentoring, payable at the session. I offer a couple of concessionary places for those on lower wages or for those in training. Please contact me for my current availability.

Beginnings and endings. I suggest that we work together on negotiating beginnings and endings. Sudden endings can sometimes be jarring and may undermine the therapeutic process for some clients.

Holidays. There are normally approximately ten sessions per year when I am either on holiday or leading or participating on training courses. I will give you plenty of notice about my holiday and dates away, and would appreciate you doing the same.

Cancellations. If you are unable to attend a session, I appreciate at least 24 hours notice. Sessions may still incur a charge if cancellations are made with very short notice (apart from cases of sudden illness, as and when this is unavoidable).

Dispute resolution. If you are unhappy with your experience of therapy I would appreciate you talking to me about your concerns in the first instance. If this doesn't seem possible, for whatever reason, then please contact Chris Wilson, a collegue in my IPN peer supervision group, on 0117 979 0545 and raise your concerns with him. As I am an accredited member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) you can also make a complaint to them, as they are my professional body. Find out more here.
