Having someone to talk to about how awful I have been feeling really helped, especially as I felt like I didn't have anyone else I could talk to. There was no judgement and my counsellor was empathetic, which is important to me and helped me to open up.”

Once you fill out our form, a member of our team will be in touch within 24 hours. The first step is to have a quick chat so that we can find out a little more about you and to talk you through the process. We can chat morning, afternoon or evening.
If you are happy to start counselling, you will be allocated 6 sessions to begin with. They will last 50 minutes and you will speak to the same counsellor every week. All sessions take place virtually either on the phone, text or via videocall. If you are struggling in between your counselling sessions, you can access our ‘wellbeing drop-in’ sessions, which are available from 9am-9pm everyday. These are short 30 minute calls with the on call counsellor.
Our counsellors join us through a professional counselling service called JHD Counselling Services. If you would like to find out more about our counsellors, click below.
