Clear Minds will help lift the financial burden from people who require long-term counselling support but cant afford it, specifically those with deep rooted difficulties, often stemming from childhood or specific traumas, for whom the short-term counselling provided by the NHS is insufficient.
This donation will go directly to pay therapist providing therapy for those in long term counselling who find themselves in financial difficulties and are unable to cover the cost of their therapy.
I am a single parent with adolescent children who has suffered high anxiety and poor self worth for much of my adult life. I have accessed short term support as and when I could, but long term therapy is beyond my financial grasp. After a build up of anxiety and traumatic experiences, I recently experienced an acute mental health breakdown. I was left reeling, confused and overwhelmed by the experience of being sectioned under the Mental Health Act and my resulting stay in psychiatric hospitals. On discharge there was no one-to-one therapy available to me and I could not afford to pay for private long term counselling. I would have been left without any access to this kind of talking therapy, were it not for Clear Minds. To know that I now have weekly, long term sessions with the same therapist is in itself reassuring, calming & empowering. I’m both humbled and immensely grateful to Clear Minds for providing me with this opportunity to know myself, to grow and to feel better, so I can better take care of myself and my family.
