Fees and Appointments
Chelmsford Counselling Foundation offers affordable counselling. The full fee for an assessment appointment for individual counselling is £55 which is the same for ongoing weekly counselling. Chelmsford Counselling Foundation is a charity, and we do not wish to exclude anyone from counselling due to inability to pay. In specific circumstances, you may be able to agree a lower weekly fee with the assessor, subject to limited financial support that may be available from Chelmsford Counselling Foundation.
Individual counselling
All clients have an Assessment Appointment before allocation to a suitable counsellor. The consultation takes up to one hour and there is a non-refundable administration fee of £20, payable at time of booking. Assessment Appointments can usually be booked within 2 weeks of contacting Chelmsford Counselling Foundation.
Chelmsford Counselling Foundation cannot guarantee they can offer ongoing counselling, following an assessment. This is because the type of counselling we offer may not be suitable for you. If this is the case, we will suggest alternative services.
Relationship counselling
Relationship counselling will also start with an Assessment Appointment and a non-refundable administration fee of £20 is payable at time of booking. Assessments and weekly relationship counselling are £75 per session. Unfortunately, we are unable to provide financial support for relationship counselling.

Options for counselling
Time-Limited counselling (up to eight sessions) – this gives you the chance to ‘try out’ our counselling, and provides us with the opportunity to carry out a more extended assessment to ensure that once-weekly psychodynamic counselling is suitable for you.
Time-limited counselling (up to sixteen sessions) – this offers you the opportunity to work in a very focused way over a four to five month period, to help you to structure your thoughts about the issues you are facing and think together about solutions for these.
