If you work in the creative industries and are struggling with your mental health and wellbeing, you can self-refer into our service and access our diverse team of Counsellors and Coaches.
Counselling
We provide access to a diverse range of over 125 student and trained, experienced Counsellors, all of whom are registered with the BACP or UKCP, are based across the UK, and have a knowledge and understanding of the unique challenges of working in the creative industries.
Sessions start from £25 each and our team will be able to work with you on any issue, be it personal or professional, from anxiety, depression and stress through to addiction, trauma and eating disorders.
We will ask you to complete a short online assessment form, which will allow us to develop an understanding of your background and circumstances, as well as provide you with an opportunity to stipulate who you would like to work with in terms of a Counsellors’ age, gender, ethnicity, specialisms, lived experiences, etc.
Every effort will be made to schedule your counselling sessions around your work and personal commitments.
Coaching
We offer access to a diverse range of specialised Coaches, all of whom are based across the UK, and have a background in the creative industries.
Our Coaches can help you to build resilience to stress, prevent burn out, develop a more sustainable work – life balance, achieve your personal and professional goals, and much more.
As with our counselling service, you will be able to choose who you would like to work with, and sessions can be arranged around your work and personal circumstances.
Artist Support
Our diverse team of experienced Practitioners understand how demanding it can be to work in the creative industries.
Whether you are working on a personal piece that has emotional triggers, are engaged with a community group that has complex needs, or would simply like a safe space to off-load, our skilled team are here to listen and advise you on how you can protect your mental health and wellbeing.
