Relationship Issues
Struggling to connect, communicate, or rebuild trust? We support individuals and couples to create healthier, more fulfilling relationships.
Affordable Counselling
Alongside the Psychotherapy offered by our Lead Psychotherapists, Chris Donovan and Emma Warren and our team of Counsellors, we pride ourselves in being able to offer an 'affordable counselling service' from our therapy centres.
The service was started back in 2021 with the mission to make counselling ‘accessible’ to all by offering low cost counselling to individuals who might otherwise struggle to access counselling sessions. This may be because they are on tighter budgets or find themselves in particular difficulties.
Please note that the Affordable Counselling Service is unable to work with clients who are presenting with suicidal thoughts, complex eating disorders, addiction or serious self-harm. Couples and Relationship Therapy is also not available through this Service.
£20 Counselling Sessions, Now in More Locations
Originally offered from our flagship Centre in Stansted Mountfitchet, we now have a second Centre in Great Dunmow, meaning our reach is even more extensive than before. We now cover a wide geographical area from Great Dunmow and the Chelmsford villages all the way through to Bishop’s Stortford, Stansted Mountfitchet, Saffron Walden and surrounds.
Priced at only £20 per session, this service is delivered by counsellors nearing the end of their training and on clinical placement, or already qualified counsellors building their hours towards accreditation.

Support Without Barriers or Judgement
Unlike some other ‘lower cost’ counselling services which are means tested and require proof of income, we do not ask for evidence of this. We trust that if you are reaching out for this support, it’s because you need it!
We offer clients a minimum of 12 sessions on this service as it is our firm belief that you will benefit far more from longer term work than you would from something cut off at 6 sessions. It gives you and your allocated counsellor a good framework of time in which to really engage in some deeper work. This is also reinforced by the fact that this counselling is delivered in-person rather than online, as many counselling offerings seem to be these days.

Redundancy and Work Issues
Losing a job or feeling stuck at work can shake your confidence and routine. We’re here to help you make sense of what’s next and regain control.
Low Self Confidence and Self Esteem
Tired of feeling “not good enough”? We’ll help you rebuild your confidence and develop a more positive relationship with yourself.
Life Transitions
Big life changes can shake your sense of self. We’re here to help you navigate uncertainty and rediscover your direction.
Learning to Live with Illness
A long-term diagnosis can bring up fear, frustration, and deep change. Counselling offers space to process your feelings and adjust at your own pace.
Guilt
Whether it’s recent or something that’s weighed on you for years, guilt can be heavy. We help you understand it, face it, and start letting it go.
Grief and Bereavement
Grief doesn’t follow a rulebook. Whether recent or long ago, we’re here to help you process and heal at your own pace.
Feeling Lost
Sometimes life just feels directionless or disconnected. Together, we can help you find clarity, purpose, and a way forward that feels right for you.
Divorce and Separation
The end of a relationship can be painful, confusing, and full of mixed emotions. Talking it through can help you heal and move on with strength.
Depression and Low Mood
When life feels heavy and motivation fades, talking to someone can make all the difference. You’re not alone, and things can get better.
Couples Counselling
Struggles in relationships are more common than people think. We work with couples to improve communication, rebuild trust, and reconnect.
Conflict
Whether it’s constant arguments or silent tension, conflict can affect every part of your life. Counselling helps you understand the patterns and find calmer ways to relate.
Attachment Issues and Codependency
When relationships feel one-sided, overwhelming, or too intense, it might be more than just a rough patch. We help you explore healthier ways to connect.
Anxiety
Feeling constantly on edge or overwhelmed? We help you manage stress and calm racing thoughts with proven coping strategies.
Anger
If your temper feels out of control or causes problems in your life, counselling can help you understand and manage your anger more effectively.
