Session Format

Malaga Therapy primarily offers online sessions, allowing flexibility and continuity for an international clientele.

In-person sessions are available on Thursdays and Saturdays only and are subject to availability. An additional €5 fee applies to in-person appointments

​​​

Payment

All therapy sessions must be paid at the time of booking through Bizum, Stripe, or Bank Transfer. Regarding psychological evaluations, half of the cost must be paid at the time of booking and the remaining balance on the day of the evaluation.​

​​​

Session duration

Session duration depends on the type of therapy and the nature of the work involved.

Process-oriented therapies — including psychotherapy, coaching, sex therapy, therapy for expatriates, psychoanalysis, couple therapy, family therapy, and group therapy — begin with a first session lasting 2 hours. This initial session allows time for assessment, clarification of the request, and the establishment of a therapeutic framework.
Subsequent sessions for these therapies last 55 minutes.

Technique-based approaches — including sophrology, mindfulness, EFT therapy, hypnotherapy, and EMDR therapy — are conducted in 55-minute sessions from the first appointment, as they follow a more structured and targeted format.

A standard 55-minute session generally includes approximately 45 minutes of therapeutic work, followed by 10 minutes to ensure a proper closing of the session, discuss progress, and address any practical matters when necessary.

Please, be respectful of the time:

any session started will be charged in full.

​​

Treatment plan​

If you decide to start a therapy program with me, I will draw up a treatment plan. This plan describes the intended goals of the therapy, the agreed approach as well as the expected intensity and duration of the treatment. Sometimes a second or even third consultation is needed before such a plan can be drawn up. The treatment plan is always discussed with you personally, as well as the general (lower) conditions that apply to a counseling program in my practice.

​​​

Cancellation or postpone appointments

Clients can cancel or reschedule an appointment anytime up to three times, as long as they provide 48 hours' notice. If you cancel an appointment with less than 48 hours notice, you will be charged 50% for this. If you fail to show up or cancel the same day, you will be fully charged for the appointment. As a therapist, in a situation of force majeure, I may cancel an appointment without stating reasons and reschedule to another day, to be determined in consultation with you.

If you have two no-shows without prior notice, the follow-up will be terminated.​​​​

​

Written reporting

If written reporting to third parties is sent on request, this will be charged.
