What is here
NHS Talking Therapies offers support for anxiety and depression. You can refer yourself if you live in England and are aged 18 or over. Some areas also accept younger people.
You do not need a diagnosis to apply. The service finder uses your GP surgery to find local support. Some services accept people without a GP.
Side by Side offers online peer support for adults in England and Wales. You can share experiences with other people who understand mental health problems.
What it costs
NHS Talking Therapies is free. Side by Side is also free.
Private therapists set their own fees. Ask about the session price and any cancellation charge before booking.
How ViaCara helps in England
An online session is a video or phone call at a time you choose. You do not need to travel, and you can change practitioner if the fit is wrong.
The UK Crisis Resources page lists people you can talk to at any hour.
Thanks for your interest. We're not taking on new clients at the moment.
