Welcome to Horsham and Crawley Counselling Group CIC

We’re a team of qualified & experienced counsellors based at Alphacom House, Oakhill Road, Horsham.

We offer affordable counselling for adults, children and adolescents, as well as employee assistance for small to medium size companies. Counselling sessions can take place face-to-face, online or over the telephone.  We typically charge less than private therapy as part of our social mission to as a not for profit community interest company to help make counselling accessible to local residents.

We have reduced our wait times to begin counselling and we can offer an initial appointment within two weeks.  We have a sliding fee scale based on your income and can offer financial support if you are in difficulties once counselling starts.  So don’t struggle on alone – it can be helpful to just to talk to us initially about what’s going on.  Simply call or email us.
