Personal Counselling

“ A counsellee says: I found the safest place for me to explore my underlying beliefs and choices which brought deep healing and change through the power of the cross. I am so grateful for this precious gift to the church.”

Who can use the Counselling Service?

Anyone can approach us for help. Male, female, young, old, with or without faith, individual or couples. All are welcome.

Is the Service Confidential?

Yes - issues you discuss with your counsellor will not be discussed with anyone else other than their supervisor, who gives the same commitment to confidentiality. All verbal and written information, which you share with us, is carefully protected to ensure that no-one else has access to it.

When & Where is Support Available?

Counselling usually takes place at CCTS, Central Hall, St Mary Street, which is situated in Southampton City centre, close to Debenham's department store. Times can be arranged to suit both you and your counsellor. Usually this is on a weekly basis.

Is there a Charge?

There is a charge for an initial interview and subsequent sessions. Please contact us for information concerning our current rates.

How do I get Support?

If you would like to speak to a counsellor, you should phone CCTS on 02380-385247 and leave a message on our answer-phone. Alternatively you can email us at .

What Happens Next?

We will return your call as soon as possible (probably within a few days); answer any queries that you may have and arrange an initial interview.
This interview will enable us to match our service to your needs as closely as we can, or direct you to other agencies if necessary. After the initial interview, you will be contacted again once a counsellor is available.
