We believe Counselling Matters has advantages over other counselling services, for example
​​
-
We have short waiting lists and can prioritise urgent cases
-
We are an inclusive service so we can work with clients with a wide range of difficulties, whether adult, child or adolescent
-
We offer weekly appointments
-
We can provide home visits for housebound clients
-
We provide 12-18 sessions of counselling initially but this can be extended when appropriate
-
We provide continuity of care, so clients will be seen by the counsellor who carries out the original assessment
-
We provide a flexible service, with evening and Saturday appointments, and easily accessible premises
