About North East Counselling Services

North East Counselling Services provides confidential counselling services that help adults, children and young people to better understand and cope with their own emotions, and to feel more in control of their lives and relationships.

We work with clients who experience anxiety, depression, relationship breakdown, stress-related issues, loss, bereavement – and a range of other factors that can affect mental health or wellbeing. We provide face-to-face counselling on Tyneside and extending into other parts of North East England. Our telephone and online counselling are available UK-wide and we occasionally work with clients outside of the UK.

Formed in 2006 in Gateshead, we have grown to serve thousands of counselling clients each year, from our sites in Blaydon and Pelaw, as well as in GP surgeries, schools and workplaces, and remotely.

Our Ethics

North East Counselling Services is a Community Interest Company (CIC). Any profits that we make are used to extend our counselling services. This enables us to help more adults and children in need of counselling, and therefore to reduce the potential long-term impact of the issues that they are experiencing.

As an organisational member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), we are committed to work within BACP’s Ethical Framework for the Counselling Professions. This reflected in all that we do.
