kind, Caring & here to listen.
Here at Belinda Jayne Scott Counselling, we believe that counselling should be available to any adult who needs it. Good mental health is essential to living a healthy & fulfilling life – this is why we prioritise being affordable, accessible & available.
We offer 50-minute counselling sessions for just £45 for adults, face-to-face or online. We also offer a limited number of concessions (sessions at a discounted rate), which is subject to eligibility. To find out more, please visit our Fees page on the menu above, or click here.
With the ongoing cost of living crisis, we are aiming to keep counselling as low-cost as possible. In a time where it is more needed than ever – with the cost of living crisis, the economy worsening & a general feeling of uncertainty in the country – counselling has never been more necessary.

I am a fully qualified counsellor based in Southend-on-Sea, Essex. Welcome to my website where you can learn more about me and the services that I offer.
My special interests in counselling include anxiety; low mood; older people and ageing, including menopause; body image; sleep disturbances; loss; work stresses; unemployment; family concerns.
I am fully insured with Holistic Insurance Services and I hold a current Enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS).
I love counselling, and enjoy working with clients where I will give space to develop our therapeutic relationship, so you feel able to share whatever is on your mind. As an older therapist, I have personal experience of many life issues, including bereavement, grief, loss, despair, relationship struggles, anxiety, fear, loss of direction, childbirth, raising a large family, insecurity in a variety of forms, ageing, menopause, and more.
I believe in the power of sharing your thoughts and fears, joys and uncertainties. I will support you and walk with you, meeting you wherever you are in life.
I understand how difficult taking the first step can be when approaching a counsellor, so I offer a no fee 10 minute telephone conversation to see if we might be a good match to work together. There is no obligation to book a session after this conversation, but if you wish to proceed with the counselling sessions, this can be arranged immediately.
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions.
