What Makes Us Special?
Two of the most common barriers to accessing therapy are high prices and long waiting lists, UKCN are committed to overcoming both. Everybody in our organisation, directors, administrative staff and therapists, are passionate about delivering high-quality affordable counselling and psychotherapy.
Our low-cost counselling service offers sessions at a standard rate of £28 and we aim to have you assessed and starting with a counsellor within 1 week of your initial contact, and there is currently no waiting list for our services.
