Site info & Guide

This page helps you get the most out of progresspsychotherapy.com. It also features the sites privacy policy.

 

The top navigation bar takes you to all the main parts of the site such as service information, tools, news and the booking system. The bottom of the site has contact links and the site guide (click the cookie notice).

 

On the Book & Pay page, click the session type you want and it will open the booking page. Pick a date and time. Then give your name and email address. Your session is booked. If you need to cancel you can find a cancellation button in the email confirmation or send your therapist an email.

The payment links let people pay for services by card. This is powered by SumUp, a leading payments company. They are able to verify and secure your card details. They charge a small transaction fee (usually in the region of 2.5%) for their service. Progress Psychotherapy does not keep a record of your card details. Services purchased can be refunded up to 24 hours before session time but the transaction fee cannot be. Direct bank payment avoids the fee so can be an alternative payment method.

The site does not hold identifiable information. We do not hold payment information as SumUp processes payment for us. No information is shared externally.
