Counselling in your community
Bringing counselling into the spaces where community already happens.
Therapy Rebels partners with charities, CICs, community organisations and grassroots projects to bring free counselling and emotional support directly into community spaces.
We know that sometimes the best way to make counselling accessible is to bring it to the places where people already feel connected.
Through Counselling in Your Community, we work with organisations to create opportunities for trainee counsellors to become a regular presence within their community.
That might mean
01
Offering one-to-one counselling sessions
02
Being available for informal emotional support
03
Becoming part of an existing programme or activity
What would work for your community?
Every organisation and every community is different
We start by talking
We’ll start by talking with you about what you’re seeing on the ground, what your community is asking for and where there might be gaps in mental health and emotional support.
We think together
From there, we can think together about what kind of therapeutic presence would be most useful, how it could fit naturally into what you already do, and what level of support feels right.
We find the funding together
Where funding isn’t already in place, we can work in partnership with your organisation to explore funding opportunities and develop a model that makes sense for your community.
Finding the funding together
Free for the people accessing it
We want the counselling we provide through community partnerships to be free for the people accessing it.
Where funding isn’t already in place, we can work in partnership with your organisation to explore funding opportunities and develop a model that makes sense for your community, your organisation and the people you support.
Our free counselling pathway
For The Culture Counselling
For The Culture Counselling is our free counselling pathway, created to open up access for people who have been excluded from, overlooked by, or haven’t always felt represented within traditional mental health spaces.
Through For The Culture Counselling, people from marginalised and minoritised communities can access free counselling in spaces where they already feel seen, heard and understood.
Let’s see what we can build together.
If you’re a charity, CIC, community organisation or grassroots project and you’d like to bring therapeutic support into your space, get in touch.
Tell us about your community, what you’re already doing and where you think some extra emotional support could make a difference.
