Connections: A space for growth and change
Counselling in Edinburgh and Online Across the UK
Counselling is not about being broken or needing fixed. It is about creating space for growth, change and deeper connection. At Connections Counselling, we provide counselling in Edinburgh and online across the UK, offering an inclusive space for reflection, healing and personal development. Whether you are seeking support with anxiety, depression, grief, relationships, life changes or simply a deeper understanding of yourself, we are here to walk alongside you.
Meeting You Where You Are, at Your Pace
Life can be complex. Sometimes we carry experiences that continue to affect us. Sometimes we are seeking clarity, balance or a greater sense of purpose and direction. Whatever brings you here, counselling can provide a space that does not rush, judge or impose, but instead offers the opportunity to explore, reflect and grow.
We recognise that every person's journey is unique. Whether you choose in-person counselling in Edinburgh or online counselling from anywhere in the UK, we begin with a single session and allow the work to unfold at a pace that feels right for you. Our counsellors are committed to working ethically, thoughtfully and with genuine presence.
We believe that meaningful change happens through connection with ourselves, with others and with the communities around us. That is true not only for clients but also for counsellors. We are creating a counselling community where practitioners feel supported and valued, enabling them to work authentically with care, integrity and compassion.
Clients - Fees and Intake
Choose your contribution - A Fairer Fee Structure. Affordable Counselling in Edinburgh and Online
We want counselling to be accessible, while also keeping the service sustainable. We use a “choose your contribution” model. Each rate has a starting point based on income. You choose the level that fits your circumstances and you are welcome to contribute more if you are able.
- Community Rate – from £5 per session. For people on low or no income (subject to a waiting list)
- Sustainability Rate – from £40 per session. For people on incomes under £30,000
- Supporter Rate – from £55 per session. For people on incomes over £30,000 or who choose to contribute more
- Corporate rate - from £70 for businesses
These are starting points, not fixed fees. Paying more than the starting rate directly supports someone else to access counselling at a lower cost. Access grows through shared contribution. We do not ask for proof of income. We trust you to choose the rate that reflects your situation.

Become a Community Contributor - Helping us to help others, help themselves
Connections operates as a lean, not-for-profit, Community Interest Company (CIC), committed to balancing accessibility with ensuring our counsellors receive fair payment for the valuable work they do. We ask only for the minimum contributions needed to sustain our service because we believe that access to counselling should not be determined by financial circumstances alone.
To make this possible, we rely on funding and donations to support those who otherwise could not afford counselling. Whether through a one-off gift or a regular contribution, your support helps us provide opportunities for people to access the care they need and take meaningful steps towards positive change. There is something special about helping another person find support when they need it most. It is a quiet form of connection — one that asks for nothing in return, yet can mean everything to someone else. Although those who benefit may never thank you in person, please know that your generosity matters deeply. On their behalf, thank you.
Every £600 raised provides 15 counselling sessions for people who can't access support. If you’d like to contribute, we deeply appreciate your support.
