Waterloo Community Counselling
The Affordable & Accessible Counselling service offers low and no cost counselling services to ensure that everyone can access the support they need. Fees are reduced to make therapy affordable and accessible for individuals from all backgrounds. The lowest fee currently is £20. The initial consultation has a non-refundable fee of £60 if you are employed or £30 if you are on a low income or unemployed. Please call the office if you believe that the above fees are unmanageable due to your financial circumstances. Service users are usually offered 18 sessions of counselling which can be extended up to a maximum of 2 years. Service users can self-refer via our website.
The Multilingual Counselling for Refugees & Asylum-Seekers provides free mother-tongue counselling to migrants, refugees, and asylum seekers. Please note that they are currently only able to offer this service to refugees and asylum-seekers who are living in Lambeth. See their website for a list of the languages that they can offer support in currently.
WCC also runs various social activity groups for its isolated service users, including regular meetups for Refugees and Asylum-Seekers. These activities range from cultural excursions to hands-on workshops, designed to bring refugees and asylum-seekers together.
