Don’t pay upfront!
After answering a lot of questions on their website to find a suitable therapist, they asked for a months payment upfront, which I did not pay. (Need to check out the therapist first) When they sent me the name of my proposed therapist it was not in line at all with what I had specified in the answers to my questions. Won’t be using. *Following on from their reply to my review (below), I emailed them explaining the poor service and that I would not be using them. I continued to get emails from them urging me to use their services, completely ignoring my follow up email.
