Counselling & Therapy at MyMental

At MyMental, counselling offers a calm, supportive space where you can explore your thoughts, feelings and experiences at your own pace.

Our role is not to tell you what to do or offer quick solutions. Instead, your counsellor will walk alongside you as you develop deeper self-understanding, self-acceptance and clarity.

We respect your individuality, and sessions are shaped around what feels important to you, always recognising your lived experience, values and perspective.

Whether you are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, uncertain or simply need somewhere to talk openly, counselling can offer a steady and compassionate place to begin.

Book a free consultation to ask questions, discuss your circumstances and explore whether counselling feels right for you.

Counselling & Therapy Pricing

We believe mental health support should be accessible, transparent and flexible. Our counselling options are designed to support different needs, circumstances and budgets.

Free Trainee Counselling – Limited Places

We offer a limited number of free counselling places with trainee or placement counsellors who are completing their supervised counselling experience.

Trainee counsellors receive regular professional supervision and work within the ethical and safeguarding requirements of their training and placement.

Free counselling is offered for an agreed number of sessions and is subject to availability and an initial suitability conversation. This helps us consider whether the service can provide the right level of support for you.

Sessions may be available online, by phone or, where possible, in person.

Please contact admin@mymentalltd.com to ask about current availability or join our waiting list.

Low-Cost Counselling – Β£25 to Β£35 per session

Affordable ongoing counselling is available with trainee or placement counsellors working under professional supervision.

The exact fee will depend on the counsellor you are matched with, and all reduced-fee places are subject to availability.

Affordable one-to-one counselling for students studying any subject or course. You do not need to be studying counselling, psychology or a related subject to access this service.

Our Counselling Approach

We offer person-centred, integrative, psychodynamic and CBT-informed counselling. Person-centred values remain at the core of MyMental, providing a warm, non-judgemental environment where you can explore whatever feels most important to you.

Each counsellor works according to their qualifications, experience and individual therapeutic approach. We will consider your needs and preferences when finding the most suitable match for you.

In counselling, we focus on:

  • Building a genuine and empathetic therapeutic relationship
  • Creating a confidential and supportive space where you feel heard
  • Supporting self-reflection and emotional awareness
  • Encouraging self-acceptance and personal growth
  • Exploring experiences and emotions without judgement

Counselling at MyMental is not about being β€œfixed”. It is about being supported as you make sense of your experiences and move forward in a way that feels right for you.

What Can Counselling Help With?

We offer both short-term and longer-term counselling, depending on your needs and the type of service you access.

People may come to counselling for support with:

  • Anxiety, worry or ongoing stress
  • Low mood or changes in emotional wellbeing
  • Relationship or family difficulties
  • Work-related stress and burnout
  • Life changes and transitions
  • Bereavement, loss or separation
  • Low self-esteem or confidence
  • Loneliness or isolation
  • Difficult past experiences
  • Emotional overwhelm or feeling stuck
  • Personal growth and greater self-understanding

You do not need to be in crisis to seek counselling. Many people come simply because they want a confidential space to talk, reflect and understand themselves more deeply.

Confidentiality and Suitability

Counselling sessions are confidential, although there are some circumstances in which information may need to be shared because of a serious safeguarding concern or legal requirement. Your counsellor will explain confidentiality and its limits before counselling begins.

An initial conversation also helps us understand what you are looking for and whether the counsellor or service can safely and appropriately support your needs.

MyMental’s counselling service is not an emergency or crisis service.

Counselling, Therapy & Other Support at MyMental

We use the terms counselling and therapy to describe our one-to-one emotional support. Your practitioner will explain their professional role, qualifications and approach before your sessions begin.

Alongside individual counselling, MyMental also offers:

  • Affordable counselling for students studying any subject
  • Workplace wellbeing support
  • Employee Assistance Programme services
  • Self-help resources and practical wellbeing tools

You can explore our mental health services to find the type of support that feels right for you.
