How it works
How it works and fees
We keep the process simple and clear, so you know what to expect at every stage. It always starts with a short, no-pressure conversation.
The steps
-
Day one
Get in touch
Tell us a little about what you are looking for. A sentence or two is plenty; you don’t need to explain everything.
-
Within two working days
A 15-minute conversation
A relaxed call at a time that suits you, to talk through what is going on, ask questions and see whether Elementa feels like the right fit.
-
When you’re ready
Initial assessment
A longer session with your psychologist to understand what has brought you here and what you would like to change. Afterwards, you receive a short written summary and a proposed plan.
-
Then
Ongoing therapy
Regular online sessions, reviewed together as you go so the work stays focused on what matters to you.
The 15-minute introductory conversation
We’ll start with a relaxed, no-pressure conversation at a time that suits you. It’s a chance to talk through what’s going on, ask questions and see whether Elementa feels like the right fit.
We’ll ask briefly about what you’re looking for so we can suggest which of our Clinical Psychologists may be best placed to support you. The call is free and there is no obligation to continue.
The initial assessment
If you decide to go ahead, your first session is a 50-minute initial assessment with your psychologist. Together you’ll explore what has brought you to therapy, relevant experiences, current difficulties and what you would like to change.
Afterwards, you’ll receive a short written summary and a proposed plan, which you can talk through and agree together.
Ongoing therapy
Sessions last 50 minutes and take place online by secure video. How often you meet and how many sessions you have depends on what you’re working on, and it is something you’ll decide with your psychologist and review as you go.

What happens after you get in touch

- One of the team will be in touch to arrange your 15-minute call at a time that suits you.
- After the call, you decide whether you would like to book an initial assessment. There’s no pressure either way.
