Cuddle Therapy

Frequently Asked Questions

Before you book your free connection call, please read the following frequently asked questions.

How much does Cuddle Therapy cost?

In-person Cuddle Therapy is £80 per hour, with a minimum booking of 90 minutes (£120) for your first session.

Longer sessions are very welcome. The first six hours are charged at £80 per hour. Additional hours beyond six hours are £65 per hour.

Do you offer virtual sessions?

Yes. If you're not able to visit Still Space Hull, or simply prefer to connect from your own space, I also offer Virtual Cuddle & Connection sessions online.

There's no physical touch involved, but the intention is similar: dedicated time to slow down, connect and be accompanied without needing to achieve anything.

We might talk, breathe, settle somewhere comfortable, share some quiet, or simply spend time together.

30 minutes · £40
60 minutes · £70

Do you offer outcall sessions?

Yes, outcall sessions, where I travel to an agreed location, may be available by prior arrangement.

Any additional travel costs or charges will be discussed and agreed with you before your booking is confirmed.

Does the whole session involve cuddling?

Not necessarily. Your booked time is for the whole experience rather than a guaranteed amount of physical touch.

We might spend time talking, settling in, checking preferences and consent, changing positions, taking a pause or simply sharing space.

There's no amount of touch you need to fit into your session.

What should I wear?

Clean, comfortable clothing that you can relax and move easily in. Cuddle Therapy is a fully clothed service.

Because we may spend quite a lot of time in close proximity, I ask that we both arrive with good personal hygiene and avoid strong fragrances where possible.

What if I'm ill?

Because sessions can involve prolonged close contact, please don't attend with symptoms of a contagious illness that could reasonably put either of us at risk.

Let me know as soon as possible and we'll arrange another date in line with the illness and cancellation terms below.

Can I change my mind during a session?

Absolutely. Booking a session doesn't commit you to any particular kind or amount of touch.

Consent remains ongoing and mutual throughout, and either of us can pause, change or end an interaction at any time.

You can read more about how this works on the Consent & Boundaries page.

Booking Terms & Conditions

Sessions & Fees

In-person Cuddle Therapy sessions are charged at £80 per hour, with a minimum booking of 90 minutes (£120) for your first session.

The first six hours are charged at £80 per hour. Where a session extends beyond six hours, additional hours are charged at £65 per hour.

Virtual Cuddle & Connection sessions are available online at £40 for 30 minutes or £70 for 60 minutes.

Outcall sessions, where I travel to an agreed location, may be available by prior arrangement. Any additional travel costs or charges will be discussed and agreed with you before your booking is confirmed.

Your booked time covers the whole session, including arrival, settling in, conversation, consent check-ins, breaks and time to prepare to leave. It does not guarantee a particular amount or type of physical touch.

Booking & Payment

IA 50% non-refundable deposit is required to reserve your session. Your booking is confirmed once the deposit has been received.

The remaining balance must be paid before the session begins.

For outcall sessions, any additional travel costs or charges will be discussed and agreed with you in advance.

Cancellations & Rescheduling

If you need to cancel or rearrange your session, please let me know as soon as possible.

Your 50% booking deposit is non-refundable, as it reserves that time specifically for you.

If you give more than 48 hours' notice, your deposit may be transferred once to another agreed date.

With less than 48 hours' notice, the deposit is non-refundable and non-transferable.

If you have already paid any amount above the 50% deposit, that additional amount will be refunded where more than 48 hours' notice is given.

If I need to cancel your session, you can choose to transfer all payments to another date or receive a full refund.

Illness & Close Contact

Because sessions may involve prolonged close physical contact, neither of us should attend a session with symptoms of a contagious illness that could reasonably put the other person at risk.

If you become unwell, please let me know as soon as possible. Where contagious illness makes close physical contact inappropriate, your payment can be transferred to a rearranged appointment but will not be refunded, including when illness occurs within the usual 48-hour cancellation period.

Late Arrival

If you arrive late, your session will still finish at the originally agreed time and the full session fee will apply.

If there is not enough time remaining to safely and appropriately proceed with the session, it may need to be cancelled and the session fee will not be refunded.

Age & Identification

Platonic Touch & Cuddle Therapy is available to adults aged 18 and over.

You may be asked to show valid photographic identification as part of the initial consultation or before your first in-person session. A copy of your identification will not normally be retained.

A copy of your identification will not normally be retained.

Nature of the Service & Consent

Platonic Touch & Cuddle Therapy is a professional, fully clothed and non-sexual wellbeing service. Physical touch is optional and always subject to ongoing mutual consent.

Either of us can decline, pause, change or end an interaction at any time.

Your separate Consent Form provides more detailed information about consent, choice, professional boundaries and participation in the service.

Professional Boundaries

Sexual touching or activity, kissing on the lips, sexual requests or propositions, and deliberately inappropriate behaviour are not part of the service.

If a professional or personal boundary is crossed, I may pause or immediately end the session depending on the circumstances.

If a session is ended because of inappropriate behaviour or a serious breach of professional boundaries, no refund will be provided.

Alcohol, Drugs & Capacity to Consent

Please do not attend a session under the influence of alcohol, recreational drugs or other substances to an extent that affects your ability to make and communicate informed choices.

If I believe you are unable to give informed consent at the time of your appointment, the session will not proceed and the session fee will not be refunded.

Clothing, Hygiene, Smoke & Fragrance

As sessions may involve prolonged close physical contact, clean, comfortable clothing and good personal hygiene are expected from both of us.

Please avoid strong perfumes, aftershaves and heavily fragranced products where possible.

Please do not smoke cigarettes during the hour before your appointment.

If your clothing is likely to carry cigarette smoke, please bring clean, smoke-free clothing to change into before the session.

I may suggest changing what we're doing, taking a break or rescheduling if smoke, fragrance, hygiene or another sensory consideration makes prolonged close physical contact uncomfortable or impractical.

Ending A Session Early

You are free to pause or end your session at any time.

If you choose to end a session before the booked finishing time, the session fee remains payable in full and no refund will normally be provided for the unused time.

This does not affect your rights where a session is ended because I am unable to provide the agreed service.

If the session is ended early due to inappropriate behaviour or breach of the boundaries, the full fee will be retained with no refund offered.

Suitability

An initial consultation will take place before your first session so that we can discuss the service, your preferences and boundaries, accessibility needs and anything relevant to participating safely and comfortably.

The consultation gives both of us an opportunity to decide whether working together feels appropriate.

Completing a consultation does not create an obligation for you to book a session or for me to provide one. I may decline or discontinue a session where I believe it would be unsafe, inappropriate or outside my professional scope of practice.

Acceptance of Terms and Conditions

By booking and paying the deposit for a session, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agree to abide by these Terms & Conditions in full.

Ready To Book?

Your next step is a free 15–20 minute online call. It's simply a chance for us to meet, talk through any questions and see whether working together feels right for both of us.
