Session Structure and Pricing
The First Step £85
Before any journey begins, it helps to pause, take stock, and understand what you’re carrying. The First Step is an introductory consultation designed to help us get to know one another, explore what brings you here, and decide together whether Wandering Ranger Therapy feels like the right path for you. There is no pressure to continue beyond this conversation.
Filling Out the Character Sheet
In fantasy worlds, every adventurer has a character sheet, not to label them, but to understand their strengths, challenges, history, and resources.
During this session, we’ll gently “fill out your character sheet” together. This means:
- Exploring what you’re currently struggling with
- Understanding patterns, habits, and reactions
- Identifying your existing strengths and coping skills
- Looking at what’s helped in the past
Nothing is rushed, nothing forced, just comfortable conversation.
Understanding the Lore of the Mind
We’ll also spend some time making sense of how anxiety and emotional patterns actually work.
I’ll explain, in clear and grounded terms:
- why your mind reacts the way it does
- how anxiety develops and maintains itself
- what hypnotherapy does (and doesn’t do)
- how talking therapy and hypnotherapy work together
Many people find that simply understanding what’s happening in their mind already brings a sense of relief.
Choosing the Next Path
At the end of The First Step, we’ll look at where you’d like to go next.
This might include:
- whether further sessions would be helpful
- what a realistic and supportive plan could look like
- how many sessions people with similar goals often find useful
If Wandering Ranger Therapy isn’t the right fit, I’ll be honest about that too — and, where possible, help you think about other options.
