The same person from your first call to your last session
Every session is with Kingsley, so you never have to begin your story again with someone new, and the pace is set by what you bring rather than by a fixed programme. Each session is private and unhurried, which leaves room to say what you actually think rather than what you feel you ought to.

What Kingsley offers
Marking Therapy is an inclusive, affirming practice for people of every background, ethnicity, culture, faith, gender, sexuality and relationship style. Sessions are for adults aged 18 and over.
Counselling / Therapy
Kingsley works with individuals and couples who come with anxiety, low mood and depression, trauma, bereavement, communication difficulties, identity, and questions of gender, sexuality and relationship diversity, in sessions of 45 minutes, or a full hour for couples.
Online Counselling / Therapy
Sessions run by Microsoft Teams video or by telephone anywhere in the UK, and from abroad once the practice has confirmed it can work with you there, which suits people who are working, caring for someone or simply more comfortable at home.
Civil, Commercial and Community Mediation
Kingsley mediates civil, commercial and community disputes confidentially and without taking sides, helping the parties work towards a fair agreement they can keep without going to court, with fixed fees for disputes under £50,000 and a written quote for larger matters and community mediation.
Supervision for Counsellors
Qualified and trainee therapists bring their caseload to regular supervision with Kingsley, who uses the Cyclical Model of Supervision to keep ethical practice, professional growth and good client care at the centre of the work.
Hypnotherapy
Hypnotherapy is commonly used to help relieve anxiety, aid sleep, build confidence and support changes you want to make to a habit, on its own or alongside talking therapy, and nothing moves into guided relaxation until you are comfortable.
Fees, in plain figures
There is no registration fee and no charge for a first enquiry. Every fee is per session and published in full, so you know the cost before you book.
Sessions start on the hour, for example 10:00 to 10:45, with a short gap before the next appointment.

Booking your first appointment
Your first booking depends on the service: an Initial Consultation for counselling or hypnotherapy, a joint session for couples, a supervision session, or a mediation enquiry, after which you and Kingsley decide together what would help.
If you are in immediate danger call 999; for urgent support call Samaritans on 116 123 or NHS 111 and choose option 2.
