Fees

Fee Scale and Charges

Charges are set out according to the circumstances of each person’s treatment, with savings passed on because CBT Newtownabbey has lower overheads than large companies.

How the fee scale works

Cost is an important consideration in therapy. The scale reflects the practical work involved in providing treatment rather than applying one standard charge regardless of circumstances.

Choosing therapy begins with understanding how charges are structured. CBT Newtownabbey sets fees according to the circumstances of each person's treatment rather than applying one flat rate regardless of individual needs, because the practical work involved in providing treatment differs from case to case. This flexible scale allows therapy to remain accessible for individuals, primary care networks and corporate clients alike, while still reflecting the clinical effort each course of treatment genuinely requires.

Lower overheads are a key reason the fee scale can be kept competitive. Because CBT Newtownabbey is not a large company, the savings generated by reduced running costs are passed on to the people who attend sessions. Those operating costs include premises, administration and the practical tasks that surround therapy sessions, and keeping them lean creates room in the scale for circumstances that would otherwise be priced heavily by larger providers.

Cost is an important consideration for anyone seeking help with anxiety, stress, panic, phobia, agoraphobia, obsessive compulsive disorder, post traumatic difficulties, mood concerns, irritability and anger. A scale built around treatment circumstances means people are not charged a standard amount irrespective of the complexity of their situation, and confidentiality is respected throughout the discussion of fees so that individuals can be open about their financial position without discomfort.

For primary care links, referral networks and corporate clients, the same scale offers predictability combined with flexibility. Charges reflect the type and length of treatment provided, and the therapists can explain clearly how a course of sessions is priced before any commitment is made. Questions about fees, the fee scale and payment arrangements can be raised directly, helping clients make informed decisions about the therapy that best suits their circumstances.
