Counselling Service based on ability to pay offered in Petersfield

from Petersfield's Shine Radio · host Petersfield's Shine Radio

Counselling helps people come to terms with difficulties (like anxiety or bereavement) but many can't afford it, so Petersfield Counselling Service have offered a service based on ability to pay since 1980. Referrals often come from GPs and Social prescribers and there is a one hour assessment to see if this would be helpful to you - and you can trial some sessions too. The 20 counsellors are volunteers and are not paid; some are trainees (under supervision) to reach the 100 hours work as part of their qualification. They offer online courses too and day time and evening sessions at Petersfield Hospital. Paul, the Operations Manager, tells Mike Waddington about the service, ability to pay and their AGM on 7 May.
