What we do

CYNNAL is a confidential counselling service for clergy, ministers of religion, Christian workers, and their families. It has bases in Cardiff, Carmarthen and Aberystwyth, but is also available online via Zoom. Our service differs from other counselling services in that it recognises the importance of spirituality and caters to a specific clientele. CYNNAL deals with all manner of problems and takes a holistic approach that addresses the interaction of mind, body, and soul. The service recognises the spiritual dimension of life and, if appropriate, offers signposting for further spiritual guidance.

Who do we support

Most people who attend our service have an unhealthy attachment to something or other, which tends to define who or what they are and has the power to decide how they feel and think, such as anxiety or low moods. We provide intensive one-to-one counselling, using a variety of evidence-based interventions to help users detach. Further ongoing support is provided through group therapy sessions, both online and hybrid.

This service is for people aged 18+.
