    For those needing to pay, the costs will be as follows:

    Individual counselling:

    • £25 per hour for those in full time employment. 
    • £15 per hour evidenced by proof of low income
    • £5 per hour evidenced by proof of claiming unemployment benefit

  • How do I pay for this service?

    Your first appointment will be a free consultation, and once that is complete, if you decide to book on more sessions you can pay for your next one with either cash or card.

    If you book an appointment and don’t turn up, we’ll still charge you unless you get in touch and cancel it with us.

  • Who else is involved in this service?
  • Why choose our counselling service?

    We set up Ongo Talk because we wanted to be able to offer an affordable counselling and life coaching service to those who need it. We also wanted to offer a service where you will be guaranteed to hear from us within three working days of you getting in touch with us.
