For employers & HR teams

Corporate Mental Health Support in Fareham Hampshire & online across the UK

Helping your people stay well, and stay in work.

Workplace counselling

When your people struggle, your whole business feels it

Most people keep coming to work long after they've started to struggle. They're present, but not really there. Then one day they're signed off, and their workload lands on everyone else.

Getting the right help early keeps good people well, in work and doing their best. That protects your team, your customers and your bottom line.

We give your staff fast, confidential access to a qualified therapist, in person at our practice in Fareham or online, with counselling, clinical hypnotherapy, CBT and EMDR all under one roof.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

How is this different from an Employee Assistance Programme (EAP)?

An EAP usually gives staff a helpline and a short run of sessions. Our packages sit alongside it. When someone needs more than a phone call, they get a block of sessions with a qualified therapist, in the approach that suits them: counselling, clinical hypnotherapy, CBT or EMDR.

Is it confidential for staff?

Yes. Staff book privately, and what they discuss stays between them and their therapist. We agree with you at the start what anonymous information, such as the number of sessions used, is shared with HR.

Can staff be seen in person?

Yes. Staff can see a therapist in person at our practice in Fareham, Hampshire, close to Whiteley and the M27, or online by secure video from anywhere.

What do the monthly talks cover?

Talks run for 45 to 60 minutes, in person or on Zoom, and are tailored to your teams. Popular topics include stress and resilience, hybrid isolation and loneliness, tools for anxiety and low mood, sleep and recovery, and building psychological safety.

How much does it cost?

Packages are built around the number of sessions and talks you need, so the cost fits your budget. After a short conversation about your teams, we send you a clear, simple proposal.

Do you work with small businesses?

Yes. Packages are flexible, so they work for a small local team as well as a larger organisation with hybrid or distributed staff.
