Counselling PracticE

Directory

Requests for private counselling and psychotherapy can be sent to The Hill Counselling Practice at hello@thehillcp.com or via the contact tab. The Hill Counselling Practice is not a crisis support service but we know that it can be difficult to know where to turn for support and so this page is dedicated to listing a selection of local and national support services.
