Sarah Hayes

My core model is Psychosynthesis, one of the transpersonal therapies.  I work in an eclectic way using different therapeutic techniques from various theories, including Gestalt, Transactional Analysis and REBT.  I see clients as the “whole” person, and work holistically to include the mind, body and spirit. 

I like to work creatively using art therapy, symbolism and visualisation techniques to help my clients.  I use the most appropriate skill to fit my clients’ needs.  Long and short-term therapy is available.

How much will it cost?

My fees are £40 per hour for face to face individual counselling sessions.  I charge £35 per email exchange, but reduce rates for blocks of sessions.  Internet chat sessions cost £35/86TL/49USD per hour. 

I charge students and OAPs £20/50YTL/29USD per email exchange and £102/250YTL/146USD for a block of six email exchanges.

Isn’t this rather expensive?

When I receive your email I will spend some time reading it and thinking about the most appropriate reply.  I may want to ask you more about your issues and I will be looking to develop ideas for discussion with you to help solve your difficulties.

How many counselling sessions will I need?

Sometimes clients can move forwards quite fast and others may need longer.  So it could take several weeks or up to a year.  I will work at a pace that is comfortable for you.  I will review the sessions with you every so often to see how you are feeling.

Is it okay to bring a problem that isn’t that big?

If it’s important to you, then it’s important to me to help you with it.

What if I opt for online therapy and my computer breaks down?

If this happens then please ring me on my mobile.  It will be helpful if you can give me a contact number too in case my system breaks down.
