## Frequently asked questions
### Is there a room in Blessington?
No. West Wicklow is a 90-minute cross-county drive from the Gorey practice, so Blessington clients work by secure video or telephone. That is a deliberate recommendation rather than a limitation — a three-hour round trip is not sustainable weekly.

### Why is online often better for west Wicklow?
West Wicklow has very few local private practitioners and long distances to the nearest towns. Online removes the travel entirely and keeps the work weekly rather than whenever the drive is possible.

### How much does a session cost?
€80 for a 60-minute session and €110 for a 90-minute session. Payment by Revolut (revolut.me/lindazjvw) or on arrival.

### Do I need a GP referral or a diagnosis?
No. You can book directly at https://timetochange.ie/book or ring 085 182 1645 for a short, no-obligation conversation first.

### Who does Linda work with?
Adults and third-level students. She does not currently offer child therapy, couples or family work, and will signpost an appropriate service if that is what you need.

### Are online sessions held to the same standard?
Yes — same 50-minute session, same fee, same therapist, and the same GDPR and IACP confidentiality as in-person work.
