This agreement is between you and Mairi Stones of Change Is Always Possible. Please read through it carefully as it provides information about the practical side of coming to these sessions. Your signature will constitute a binding agreement between you and Mairi Stones.

Sessions involve the disclosure of sensitive and personal information, so confidentiality is paramount. Please see Privacy Policy.

I am required by my professional bodies to have regular supervision sessions where we discuss aspects of my clinical work. I do not reveal individual identities during these sessions and supervision itself is confidential between therapist and supervisor.

Sessions are usually 75 mins. Shorter sessions can be arranged depending on what we agree is suitable for you. If you are late to a sessions we will still need to finish at the agreed time.

Mairi works in the Gift Economy which you can read more about on her website. Your Non-refundable deposit can be made by bank transfer, or Paypal before the first session or as otherwise agreed with Mairi. Gifts can be made after sessions.

I would be grateful if you could please give me as much notice as possible if you need to cancel.

If you have occasional questions or concerns outside of our sessions please email me in the first instance at mairi@changeisalwayspossible.com. I am unable to offer a crisis or emergency service. If you urgently need to speak to someone please contact your GP, NHS 24 on 111 or the Samaritans on 08457 90 90 90.

We will regularly review our work together, usually after 5 sessions. If the sessions are proving beneficial you may choose to agree to another block of sessions or a regular appointment. If I become aware at any point that my area of skill and experience is not the best support for you I will offer suggestions as to other therapies or practitioners who may be more suitable.

During our sessions we will be using a variety of techniques however the main modalities used will be EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) and Matrix Reimprinting with EFT. EFT does not claim to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease or psychological disorder and is not a substitute for medical or psychological treatment. It is a technique that was developed for the purpose of helping people to reduce or eliminate uncomfortable emotions. Mairi will always respect your wishes about whether and when to use EFT/Matrix, and that you may choose at any point to stop using it.

META Health is a stress related diagnostic tool that works alongside a medical diagnosis. A full Root Cause Analysis of your condition can be booked separately. It is recommend that you visit a licensed physician or mental health counsellor/psychiatrist if you have serious physical or mental health problems and that you consult with this professional before making any major changes to your diet or lifestyle. Mairi does not advocate the discontinuance of any prescribed medications or other treatments.

A commitment to prioritise and attend sessions is required. This means protecting the time you have identified to commit to sessions, planning ahead and arriving at sessions on time. If sessions are on-line this will mean having access to a suitable device and the appropriate log-in details (which will be sent to you) ready to begin on time.

Working with me is a collaborative process and is not just talking about your problems and feelings. It is a more active and engaged process to understand and resolve the root cause of your issues. I will be using and sharing my skills and experience to help you improve the quality of your life. This will include teaching you EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) as well as introducing you to other supportive techniques and tools.

Our work together will be more beneficial if you commit to practicing these skills between sessions. You don’t have to do that, of course; but it’s like learning to play a guitar or ride a bicycle: the more practice you do, the better you get.

I reserve the right to vary these contract terms from time to time, in order to provide the best possible service to my clients. I will endeavor to give you good notice of any such changes and time for discussion.

Having read the above information I completely understand that you are not a medical doctor and that any work we do together does not replace the advice of a physician and that your suggestions are not meant to conflict with the recommendations of doctors or practitioners who are licensed.

I understand I have the right to choose alternative methods of health treatment for myself and that if I do I accept full responsibility for my actions.

I have read this agreement and the attached Privacy Policy and I understand them. I am consenting to engage in this work on my own behalf, not as an agent for any other company and I am not on a mission of entrapment or investigation.
