Waiting Lists for Counselling.

[barkthreetimes]

Anyone else waiting for counselling to start? I am on a waiting list but it is a lengthy one, contacted another counsellor/psycotherapist today but again was told no new clients being taken on and waiting list.

I have a lot to talk about given my current life situation and just want to offload in a confidential space. First of all finding the courage to contact someone and then being told no or there is a lengthy waiting list.

That's it really. Anyone else in the same situation, stuck with stuff going in a loop in my mind.

I’m sorry OP, the NHS wait lists are so long these days. Have you tried looking at charities? Lots of mental health charities provide counselling either free or at a much lower price than typical private counselling, and don’t have the enormous wait list, so worth a look x
