How long is the waiting list for counselling?

As a low-cost counselling service, we receive a lot of enquiries, so unfortunately there is a waiting period before a counsellor becomes available.

A lot depends on your preferences and your availability. For example (winter 2024)

  • I don’t mind who I see and I’m free any time – about 2 months
  • I’m only available in the evenings – about 6 months
  • I want to see a female counsellor – about 3 months
  • I want to see a male counsellor – about 6 months
  • I want to see a counsellor who is a Christian – about 4 months
  • I want to see a counsellor who is non-binary or trans – limited availability, contact us

We currently have over 20 counsellors and are recruiting more, from as wide a community as we can.

We will always do our best to meet your preferences. But the more flexible you are, the faster we will be able to find you a counsellor, so that you can begin your sessions. 

During your initial assessment, you will have the chance to discuss your availability and preferences with us in more detail.
