Counselling

Each of us at some stage in our life will meet difficult or distressing events or experience painful emotions which can be severe enough to interfere with our daily living.  Talking to a counsellor in a confidential, safe, non-judgemental and reliable place can help you to clarify personal issues and find ways of managing your life and relationships. This process can also lead you to a deeper understanding of yourself.


We offer a free, confidential, person-to-person, safe counselling service to help you find ways of addressing the difficulties in your life.


Our surgeries are based in:
      Camden Town,
      Swiss Cottage,
      and King's Cross.
All surgeries are a short distance away from local Tube Stations. Please note: our surgery in Swiss Cottage has disability access.

 

Our services are for people 18 years old or over who live in Camden, particularly for those who are experiencing mental health problems, on low incomes or unemployed.

 

Please Note: We are not able to do immediate crisis counselling.

To access this service, just complete this
self-referral form

Carers Group

 

This group is for people in Camden who look after or support a spouse, partner, child, parent, friend, relative or neighbour who experience mental health issues. It is free of charge as it is for unpaid carers.

The group offers the opportunity to meet other carers in similar situations; a space to share your experiences and receive emotional support, and an opportunity to learn from others.

The group is facilitated by a psychotherapist.

The group meets usually every Monday 3.30-5.00pm, at Barnes House.

You are welcome to attend any Monday. To join just phone Voytek (there is no need for a referral) on wrogowski@mindincamden.org.uk, or 0207 241 8973

The Psychological Health Group

The Psychological Health Groups are for people who have experienced issues such as stress, anxiety, depression, lack of contentment or isolation.

In this group you may discover you do not need to feel alone with your problems. Most members find that the sense of belonging to a group over a period of time leaves them feeling better, and this feeling stays with them.

The group meets every Tuesday evening, 6.30-8.00pm in Camden Town.

The service is free of charge. To join, please contact Voytek directly on 0207 241 8973 to request a referral form or download it below.
