PSYCHOLOGY CAREER COACHING
Who is it for?
Whether you’re just starting out or preparing an application for further training, professional guidance can make a significant difference in how you approach each step.
At ES Therapy Centre, our principal psychologist, Dr Esthefanea F. Santos offers tailored one-to-one support for those navigating the early stages of a psychology career. This includes students exploring undergraduate or postgraduate study, graduates applying for competitive training routes, and individuals unsure about which direction to take within the field.
The route into professional psychology can be confusing, competitive, and at times overwhelming. Our coaching offers practical, realistic support so you can make informed choices and take clear steps toward your goals.
PSYCHOLOGY CAREER COACHING
What We Offer
Our career coaching sessions are tailored to your current stage. Whether you’re just exploring options or preparing a competitive application. Each session is one-to-one, focused on your individual goals and needs.
We’ll help you make sense of the different routes into psychology, from assistant psychologist roles to doctoral training programmes. Knowing what each path involves will help you choose the best fit.
If you’re applying for a professional doctorate, we provide feedback on personal statements and help you prepare for interviews. We also offer support for applicants whose first language isn’t English to ensure clarity and flow in written materials.
Whether you need one or two focused sessions or prefer ongoing support over several months, we’re here to help you progress confidently. All sessions are confidential and practical, aimed at helping you take clear next steps.

Frequently Asked Questions
How can psychotherapy help?
Psychotherapy can give people the opportunity to reflect, explore, and gain an understanding of their difficulties. It can open up conversations, bring clarity and help alleviate emotional distress. Through this process, clients can begin to form different perspectives, improve relationships and manage difficulties in a more balanced manner.
How many sessions will I need?
It depends entirely on yourself and the issues you bring to counselling. Some people come for just a few sessions and feel ready to stop, whilst others may feel they need longer. This is something we can talk about and agree on together.
Who do you work with?
We offer a safe, supportive and empathetic space where clients can explore issues without fear of judgement. Inclusivity is at the core of our practice. We recognise the unique difficulties faced by marginalised communities. Regardless of your age (18+), ethnicity, race, gender, sexuality, or disability, you are warmly welcome here.
However, we do not offer emergency crisis service. If you are worried and in need of urgent help, please visit your nearest A&E department or call the emergency services on 999.

What is your cancellation policy?
We require 48 hours’ notice for the cancellation of sessions. Sessions cancelled within fewer than 48 hours are subject to the full fee. If your therapist needs to rearrange a session for any reason, they will aim to give you as much notice as possible and offer a suitable alternative session time.
How long is each counselling session?
Each session lasts a minimum of 50 minutes.
What are the fees?
Fees range from £80 to £120. For more information, contact us directly.
Where are you based?
We are based in Medway, Kent. We work with clients from this location as well as surrounding areas. In addition to providing in-person psychotherapy sessions, we also offer remote sessions for clients in other areas across the UK via Google Meet.
Is it all confidential?
Yes, sessions are confidential. However, there are some limits to confidentiality. The therapist will need to break confidentiality in situations where:
There are concerns about your immediate safety or the safety of others
Your information is subpoenaed by a court of law.
There is a legal obligation to do so, i.e. you disclose information regarding involvement or knowledge of a criminal offence.
