About us

WAVES is a confidential counselling service delivered by professionally trained counsellors. We provide free specialist counselling for people affected by domestic abuse, offering 6 free sessions, with the option to continue for a further 6 sessions at a low cost. Alongside this, WAVES also offers low-cost counselling for any issue, with up to 18 paid sessions, making therapy more accessible to those who may otherwise struggle to afford support.

Our aim is to create a safe, inclusive, and non-judgemental space where people can explore their experiences, build resilience, and make meaningful changes in their lives.

The WAVES Project also aims to make its services available to anyone who does not usually have access to therapy such as people on low incomes, young people, disabled people, women, men, lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT+) etc.

WAVES is committed to improving access to counselling for individuals and communities who face barriers to traditional therapy services.
