About Face to Face
Face to Face Counselling is an independent, non-profit-making organisation run by volunteers. We are based in Chorlton-cum-Hardy in south Manchester and offer the following:
-
One-to-one personal counselling for adults (i.e. over 18) on low income.
One-to-one personal counselling
for children and young people aged 9-17.
One-to-one personal counselling for young adults aged 18-25 on low income.
A weekly 2 hour therapy group.
Optional library membership for volunteers and clients.
Low Income
The adult service is exclusively for people on low income or without income. The service for children and young people is open to all income groups. The service for young adults is exclusively for people on low income or without income (e.g. students) who would like to see a counsellor with particular experience/expertise in this age group.Our Counsellors
We are a team of up to 30 experienced, professional counsellors who all work as unpaid volunteers for Face to Face. We each either hold a diploma in counselling or are near the end of diploma training. Those of us who work with children and young people have had extra specialized counsellor training to develop further expertise in working with this age group.
At Face to Face we use the Person-Centred approach to counselling. See the section on counselling for more information.
We are based in St. Clements Church but we are not otherwise part of the church. As counsellors, we are all individuals, each with our own religious, spiritual and ethical beliefs.
Appointments
Counselling sessions are by appointment only. Appointments are available 7 days a week and also in the evenings. Please contact us by telephone or email.
Waiting List
Note that currently (December 2011) we have a very long waiting list. You could be waiting up to 8 months.
Fees
We ask for a contribution per session of between £4 and £10 to help cover our costs. We may waive this for some children and young people under special circumstances.
