Low Cost Counselling
The Low Cost Counselling service offers professional mental health support at affordable rates. Our team of independent counsellors is dedicated to providing services for less well-off and vulnerable clients, especially newly arrived migrants from Eastern Europe. The lowest rate is £15 per hour for unemployed and recipients of welfare benefits, and the full rate is £30 per hour. Patients who are funded by external organisations, such as mental health trusts, are charged the full rate.
We currently accept referrals from health professionals and health trusts, as well as self referrals. Please contact Jakub at jakub.jablonowski@wellspringhlc.org for more information or to make a referral.
