Online Depression Counselling in Portsmouth

With one short message. We then arrange a free 15-minute call at a time you choose, and the call asks nothing of you beyond turning up to it. No forms, no assessment, no waiting list. If you miss it, another can be arranged just as easily.

Sixty minutes is £80, ninety minutes is £100 and two hours is £120, with most depression work running weekly at the hourly rate. The initial 15-minute call is free of charge. Sessions are paid for individually, so there is nothing to commit to up front.

Yes. Self-referral is open to anyone registered with a GP in England, and depression is one of the things the service is set up for. Waits move around through the year, so starting privately while you hold that place is a perfectly reasonable thing to do.

It can, and the aim is always to widen things beyond the screen. A held hour gives the week one dependable edge, and much of the work is about rebuilding contact with people around you slowly enough that it does not become another thing you have failed at.

It might well be. Flatness, rather than obvious sadness, is one of the commonest shapes low mood takes during a long separation. We would look at what has quietly dropped out of your weeks and put some of it back before anything heavier gets attempted.

Long separations and carrying a household alone can absolutely contribute to depression, and the isolation makes it harder to spot. Counselling offers a private space to take it seriously, held online from home and fitted around childcare and the rhythm of a service routine.

Often within a few days of your free consultation. Seeing Bradley online means no journey across the city to a clinic when motivation is low, whether you are in Old Portsmouth, Cosham or near the naval base. That ease matters with depression.

Fees are £80 for sixty minutes, £100 for ninety and £120 for two hours, after a free fifteen-minute consultation. NHS Talking Therapies Hampshire is free to self-refer to, but waits can build, so private sessions let Portsmouth residents begin without delay.

When low mood makes leaving home hard, online removes that step for Portsmouth clients. Bradley keeps some evening appointments around naval and shift schedules, and the Hove room is a coastal train ride away if in-person work would suit you.
