Contacting me

You can reach me in confidence via email rjdownes@mac.com or by calling me on 0741 1609 888 or 020 8249 3420. I will get back to you as soon as possible.

I am based in Sydenham in South East London accessible to much of South East London: Forest Hill, Catford, Penge, Beckenham, Dulwich, Brixton, Bromley, Lewisham, Blackheath.

Venue: I work out of Sydenham, South East London. You can reach me via Penge East station which is 5 minutes walk away (Trains from Victoria via Brixton and Herne Hill take 16 minutes) or Sydenham Station which is 8 minutes walk away. Trains run from both London Bridge and Victoria to Sydenham. There are also direct trains to and from Islington via Hackney, Hoxton, Shoreditch and New Cross.

There is free parking on the street.

My consulting room is on the first floor via a staircase and is unfortunately inaccessible for wheel chair users.

Fees

Sessions usually take place on a weekly basis, sometimes twice a week if needed.

I charge £75-£90 for a 60 minute session.  For the initial session we explore what it is that brings you to therapy at this point and you get a chance to get a sense of how I work and whether I am someone you feel that you could work with.

At our initial meeting we can discuss times, fees and any other questions you have about the practicalities as well as the the process of psychotherapy.
