This particular service is aimed at adults over the age of 18 years.   Young people looking for support should contact Cariss Creative via carisscreative.co.uk or Childline on 0800 1111 or website: www.childline.org.uk.

We are unable to help with acute psychiatric or suicidal crises; if a client is suicidal they will be encouraged to contact the emergency services. They may also contact www.samaritans.org or telephone them on 116 123 (UK).

If you are being supported by Community Mental Health Services or receiving treatment for acute mental health issues, please do speak in the first instance to the relevant agency for advice and further support.

Simply visit the BOOK page to book a series with your chosen therapist.

You can choose whether you see the same or a different therapist. Generally if you book a series of sessions, then this will be with the same therapist.

If you wish for a particular gender then of course this is possible dependent upon availability.

It is very important that our clients trust both us and the therapist. Therefore Self Space sessions will be kept confidential – between yourself and the therapist. In some situations, it might be necessary for therapists to share notes, for example if you see more than one therapist. There may also be certain circumstances where the therapist may have to consider breaking a client’s confidence.  This could be if there is a risk of harm to the client or to another person.  The therapist will explain how they work at your first Self Space session.

Where there is a legal duty on the company to disclose information or if risk of harm is apparent, the client will be informed that disclosure has or will be made and will be kept fully informed of all steps.

Self Space Therapists need to be registered with their appropriate regulatory body (e.g. HCPC, UKCP) and relevant experience in the field. The first step to apply will be to express an interest by completing a simple application form. Depending upon the outcome of the initial application, you may either be asked to submit a CV and details of two referees or we may respond to say that, on this occasion, we are unable to take your application forward. If we are interested in hearing more about you, you will be asked to attend an interview before a final decision is made.
