Can you get free relationship counselling?

[shatteredandfedup]

We have no spare money (struggling to pay for basics - there's nothing we could cut back on to find money)

But also we're not on benefits like JSA / income support that make people eligible for means tested stuff (We do get CTC).

Is there anyway of getting relationship counselling?

Bump

Do your employers have an employee assistment programme?

Are you in a union?

Home insurance sometimes covers this

Look At charities who could help

Thanks for the reply. We're both self employed. No union!

Didn't think of home insurance, I'll check.

Any idea what kind if chatities?

Marriage guidance ask for a means based contribution, I'll look for others

Meant relate, try your church? Are you housing association tenants?

Go to gp, mine has counselling

NHS generally

Family mediation service, again, means tested

Good luck

You can. I work with such an organisation...but can you manage a contribution of any amount?

PM me for details .

What are you hoping for? What is your idea of successful counseling ?

Is your partner ok with the idea? Does he agree to go with you without digging his heels in?

Ask your local relate as they set it locally. We got it free because we had someone in the household claiming DLA (which was where a lot of the issues came from as it was a big adjustment we were dealing with in very different ways). We got 6 sessions and they made a MASSIVE difference, we're very happy 4 years later.
