What we do

A low-cost counselling service to help people who cannot otherwise access or afford counselling. This service predominantly helps people presenting with mild therapeutic needs. We currently have a short waiting list and are able to see clients fairly quickly.

Our new 'pay-it-forward' programme allows you to choose and see a qualified counsellor from our website whilst contributing to the cost of someone who wouldn't be able to afford counselling otherwise.

We also have affordable room rentals for private therapists.
