Counselling from Brecon & District Mind
Our counselling service is available for people aged over 16 by self-referral, or a referral from a professional. We are able to offer low cost or, depending on funding & eligibility criteria, free counselling. Sessions can be face to face in Brecon, telephone or via Zoom/ Teams.
After we have received your referral and full information, you will be contacted by a member of the counselling team for an initial discussion. At this point, if counselling is the way forward you will be referred to a counsellor or added to our waiting list.
We currently have a waiting list for our low cost counselling if not eligible for funded counselling. It is currently 9+ months.
Counselling for others
If you would like to sponsor a course of counselling sessions for someone else, perhaps an employee or client, please contact us to discuss further.

I feel like a different person has emerged! A person able to deal with the inevitable difficulties the pandemic has thrown up along with life’s little quirks. I feel a confidence in life that I have not felt previously, in fact I do actually feel now, in the true sense of the word, hope for many healthy years to come.
