About Headstrong Counselling:

At Headstrong Counselling, we embody a vision that goes beyond the traditional boundaries of counselling and psychotherapy. Rooted in social justice and evidence-based practice, our mission is to democratise access to high-quality counselling for every member of our community. We firmly believe that everyone, irrespective of their racial identity, income level, religious beliefs, or sexual orientation, deserves the right to quality mental health support.
We recognise that addressing the community's mental health support deficit is not merely a service but a fundamental necessity. To this end, our commitment is two-fold: First, we strive to provide low-cost, yet high-quality counselling sessions, ensuring that essential mental health support is not a privilege but a right accessible to all. .
Second, we are dedicated to fostering a counsellor base that mirrors the diversity and richness of our community. Through rigorous clinical supervision, ongoing professional development, specialised workshops, and inclusion and diversity training, we ensure that our therapists are not only skilled clinicians but also culturally competent and socially conscious practitioners.
At the heart of our ethos lies the conviction that a sustainable and quality mental health service should not be reliant on external funding, grants, or governmental resources. We are committed to creating a self-sustaining model that flourishes independently, ensuring uninterrupted and reliable support to those we serve.

Can’t recommend enough. The first meeting was a scary first step for me but the lady who asked questions for me could not have been more understanding and gentle. And my counsellor, Geeta, helped me through one of the darkest times and was a constant rock during a period of my life full of change and self-discovery. I would recommend Headstrong to anyone who’s thinking about therapy but finds it inaccessible or intimidating.

I used Headstrong for personal for three years. I was paired with a therapist who was attentive, sensitive and supportive. She really helped me make sense of my patterns and grow. I have since referred several friends to Headstrong, all of whom have reported positive experiences as well. My partner and I also benefitted immensely from their couples' sessions. I'm grateful for the high quality of therapy I received at such affordable prices. I especially want to mention that the organisation reduced my fees when I was struggling to find employment, allowing me to continue using their vital services at a time of dire need. I strongly recommend Headstrong to anyone who needs a therapist.

I appreciate Headstrong and it is value for money. I felt I had a safe space to share personal information. My counsellor was approachable and kind. I felt opportunities were missed and was wanting them to ’dig deeper’ to unpack issues.

Headstrong has been an amazing resource for myself and finally therapy at an affordable price.

I was in therapy with a trainee counselor for almost 2 years. It was quite reliable, and affordable however I do feel the therapist wasn't right for me but I carried on. I would love to come back shortly as the service was good but I still feel I need therapy and support again. A good option.

Headstrong counselling is a lifesaver, I have used it twice and both times it has been the support I needed. I am very lucky

I approached Headstrong at a time when I was struggling, I was quickly able to access the support I needed regularly. The support that I received was extremely helpful and allowed me to explore my feelings and thoughts deeper, I felt comfortable talking to my therapist and built a great bond. I would recommend Headstrong to others.

Easy assessment process, where I was quickly assigned a therapist. I was fortunate to be paired with Pauline. She really helped me through a difficult and challenging time in my life and gave me the tools to better cope with daily life. She created a safe environment for me to talk freely in and for that, I am truly grateful. I stopped my sessions a while back but I would definitely return to headstrong should I need more sessions in the future. I have recommended headstrong to several friends.

I found Headstrong at a time when I needed support, but due to a recent redundancy couldn't afford the costs of regular therapy. I was impressed by how quickly I received my initial consultation and then was assigned a therapist. Because of the low cost I wasn't sure what to expect in terms of the quality of counselling, but my therapist Julie Benteux was very knowledgeable, personable with me, and made me feel at ease from the very first session. She helped me a lot through 4 months of CBT sessions. I found our sessions challenging at times but in a way that pushed me to be better and more aware of myself and my behaviours. Overall my experience with Headstrong was very positive and I wouldn't hesitate to use them again. I believe everyone should have access to affordable therapy and am so pleased that places like Headstrong exist.

this was by far the best experience with counselling that I've had, ever! From the first appointment where we discussed what brought me to counselling and what I was looking to get from it, to the actual match with the counsellor. It worked wonderfully well for me and I felt a good connection straight away. Wonderful experience that, even months after finishing, still helps me go through life

A brilliant service that really delivers on its promise. The sessions I had with my therapist were hugely beneficial and they provided very professional but personal sessions.

I used Headstrong Counselling twice in 6-month slots - the first in 2021 and the second time in 2022. I suffered from severe anxiety brought on by work stress and my wife being unwell during pregnancy. The anxiety was making it difficult for me to be fully effective at work. I was allotted a counselor who helped me deal with / challenged my ways of thinking and provided me with tools to assess my anxiety levels and a safe place to air my thoughts and feelings (which I could not do at work). I would strongly recommend the service to anyone going through challenging times as it helped me improve my performance and it can help you too!

I had a couple of counsellors and they were both amazing. They really took the time to listen to me and hear what I wanted and needed (which I’d never felt I had got from other counselling). I was (and still am) struggling with money and the affordability versus the quality of service was excellent. I have recommended the service to a few people.

You get what you pay for - it’s cheap and they are inexperienced and borderline unprofessional

From 2019 to 2023, in a very tough time of my life I found the three therapists I worked with at Headstrong to be excellent. It was also really affordable, which is so important when money for everyone is so tight. I'd have no hesitation in recommending the service to others.
