The cost of private counselling in the Hinckley area can range upwards from £50 to £70 per hour but Pathways accepts that clients can have financial difficulties. Pathways asks clients to make a minimum donation of £20 per session. If cost is an issue then talk to us as we may have some grant funding to support the cost of some of your sessions. Counsellors are expected to cover their costs of insurance and supervision so the minimum charge of £20 per session helps to cover some of these costs and administration fees.
Where Pathways is contracted by local schools or organisations our rate may be slightly higher but is still below the average for counselling of this level.
Pathways is largely self-supporting because the Counsellors believe in the ethos of Pathways to enable all people to be able to receive affordable professional therapy and give their time willingly. However, in order to operate professionally each Counsellor is required to maintain their professional status, insurance, continuing professional development, and receive regular supervision.
Our Child and Adolescent Creative Arts Counsellor will consider reducing rates for some Pathways clients. Please ask for this consideration when making applications for this type of therapy.
