Empowering people to make
positive changes in their lives.
We provide a safe place to talk to a skilled counsellor, who will listen and help you understand how past experiences, worries about the future, or lack of self-confidence may be affecting your life.
Counselling helps you reflect on how you respond to events and explore the way you deal with relationships.
All our venues offer a confidential setting. You are free to talk safely, without fear of rejection, criticism or blame.
Cost of Counselling
The standard fee per session is £55, though subsidised rates are available depending on availability.
Subsidised rates
GCS depends on funding to subsidise reduced fee places, and we are currently in a position where we are waiting for funding to come through. To be as transparent as we can at this stage, this does mean that the wait for sessions may be several months as we look to secure funding and work through our waiting list.

Counselling for children & young people
Offering counselling to children, young people, and their parents who are experiencing difficulties. These difficulties may stem from changes in family life, such as separation, remarriage, stepfamily issues, illness, loss, or bereavement. In other cases, parents may worry about supporting a troubled adolescent, a child experiencing bullying, or a young person struggling to make friends or gain independence. This service is available in Stroud, Cheltenham, and Gloucester only.
