Dial A Counsellor

Dial A Counsellor is a great new telephone counselling service where you can chat to a qualified counsellor in the UK.

Sometimes you can't face going to a counsellor for a whole variety of reasons. It may be that you want the greater anonymity that at telephone provides. Perhaps the cost of arranging child care in addition to your counselling fees would be too great. Perhaps you are house-bound and cannot get out. Perhaps your partner always has the car making it difficult for you to travel. Perhaps you live in an area or country where there is no easy access to a face-to-face counsellor. Dial A Counsellor enables you to access professional therapy from the comfort of your own home (or private office).

The site lists a whole range of topics that you may wish to discuss as illustrations. However, if your topic is not included, the counsellors are willing to have a free informal chat with you to see if it would be appropriate for you to have counselling.

The counsellor, James Rye, is accredited by the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy and is registered on the United Kingdom Register of Counsellors and Psychotherapists. He is very experienced, and is also able to work with couples on the phone as well as with individuals.

Sessions are normally for 60 minutes, but if you wish, you can book a 30 minute session at very reasonable rates. If you live near the counsellors you can also arrange a face-to-face meeting if you would prefer.

Full details of how to contact Dial A Counsellor are given on the site.
