Consultation
The essential validity of LifeStage Dramatherapy is to provide every client the very best course of therapy, regardless of their type of condition(s), at the most affordable cost. Whereas LifeStage Dramatherapy operates independently, as a registered member of the Health Professions Council, the services we provide are of the highest possible quality and provided to you at the lowest possible expense: This is deliberate. Profit motive was not the principle driver or rationale behind the inception of LifeStage Dramatherapy. It was the personal drive, dedication and vocation of its principal that has brought the benefits of dramatherapy within the reach of more individuals than ever before while providing for far greater depth and breadth of treatment as a result.
Registering with LifeStage Dramatherapy is confidential and straightforward. In many cases the condition to be treated has already been diagnosed by the family physician or specialist. If this is the case with your family situation, please contact LifeStage Dramatherapy for an exploratory telephone conversation and review. Upon evaluation, LifeStage Dramatherapy will provide a clear recommendation of proposed remedial treatment for you to consider without obligation. We are fully accredited and work with many clients referred by medical practices of all types. Remember- we are here to help you and the individual in need of treatment. We are but a phone call or email away, to taking the first important steps to recovery.
Charter Fee Schedule for New Clients
Whereas dramatherapy is not a perfect science, its results after 200 years of professional practice and application are often far more effective in treating conditions that modern day pharmaceuticals fail to fully address or correct. It is possible your child is already taking a combination of prescription drugs where the side effects are less than desirable and the benefits are difficult to derive or measure. That’s a good reason for you to be contemplating the advantages of dramatherapy. And even more so if your GP or Consultant presented this course of treatment to help your child cope, thrive and socially achieve possibly without the need for expensive prescription drugs for life…literally. Again, we are not a government funded care facility, nor do we set our prices for professional services beyond the reach of our purpose. To equip you with the right information, our ‘rates’ are included as follows.
A regular 50 minute ‘one on one’ therapy session utilising all appropriate resources is charged from £30.00 per session. However there are limited places for sliding scale payments. Experience shows that weekly sessions should be contemplated by the sponsor of the therapy.
Since LifeStage Dramatherapy's overheads are fixed rather than variable (e.g. staffing, premises, utilities), multiple booking discounts regretfully are not available as prices are already set at better than ‘commercially tolerable’ levels than for other operators) but with no expense spared by us on quality of care and treatment of our rapidly increasing clientele. In other words, we feel current providers may be too expensive to perform the type and quality of results we are committed to delivering every day. We do invite prospective clients to compare the quality of services offered by other regional dramatherapy specialists and probe them accordingly.
The Charter Fee for 50 min’s session is available to new clients and this fee will be rate protected throughout the course of therapy.
