Counselling with The Spark

Thanks to the support The Spark receives from our funding partners and donors we can offer some services for free or at a reduced rate. Fast Access Single-Session Therapy is free for everyone 18+ who permanently lives in Scotland. Our ongoing counselling services do attract a fee, however, some subsidised counselling sessions are available. Don’t be put off if cost is an issue.
