What we offer
Counselling
​​
Our outreach counselling service provides counselling for adults and children (aged 8+) who live in Angus and the surrounding area.
​
Providing a safe, confidential, and comfortable environment for you to speak with a counsellor about your experience and how it has affected you. It is up to you what you discuss and your counsellor will go at your pace.
​
We offer counselling that can be long-term. Each counselling session lasts approx 50 minutes to an hour. Appointments can be arranged during the day or evening at a time and place suitable for you and your counsellor. If you prefer, we can also provide counselling by telephone and walk and talk counselling (normally outdoors).

To make an appointment
Telephone 01307 850741
Email info@hearmecounselling.com
Or text 07975 726953.
One of our counsellors will take your call.
​
We will provide a 1st appointment to let you know about our sevice and what we can offer you. Our aim is that this would be within 10 working days.
​
Telephone Counselling
​​
Telephone counselling is just like a face-to-face counselling, except you are talking with your counsellor over the phone. Your counsellor will always offer to call you to organise a suitable time for your appointment. This can be daytime, evenings and sometimes weekends.

Important note: We will never leave a message to say we have called unless you tell us it is safe to do so.
​
​
​
​
Walk and Talk Counselling
​
It is just like traditonal counselling except you are walking with your counsellor side by side, while you are talking about what matters to you. If walking is difficult, we can find a quiet spot to sit down and chat whilst being outside.
Movement can also enrich the counselling sessions and help you feel 'more grounded' whilst being outside. Whether it is in the park, by the beach or in the town.
Confidentiality will also be discussed for example, how you will negotiate encountering other people when out walking. Also the weather. If its bad weather, having the session indoors may be preferred.

Working in partnership
​
​
'Hear Me' has a strong commitment to working in partnership with other individuals, groups or agencies .

We believe this can lead to improved organisational effectiveness, reduced duplication, better use of resources and more value for money, all of which enable 'Hear Me' to better help its beneficiaries.
​
We consider frequently whether there are any aspects of our work that can be better delivered in partnership with others. This could be as simple as sharing a minibus with you or providing joint training.
