A safe welcoming space for better mental health

Welcome to Wiltshire Mind
Your Local Independent Mental Health and Wellbeing Charity
Offering one to one counselling and group support
Our waiting List for Counselling Support
Due to exceptionally high demand, our waiting lists for children and young people’s counselling is currently very long. At this time, you may experience a wait of nine months before an appointment becomes available.
Our waiting list for low cost adult counselling is approximately two months. (as at September 2026).
As a charity, we rely entirely on funding and donations to provide our services, and our ability to offer counselling is limited by the resources available within our income budget. We truly appreciate your patience and understanding as we work to support everyone in need.
If you are in crisis
Signposting
If you or someone you know might imminently attempt suicide, or has already seriously harmed themselves, contact 999 or go to the nearest Accident & Emergency department.
Mental health emergencies are serious, you are not wasting anyone’s time.
If you need urgent support for your mental health but it is not life-threatening, contact the NHS on 111 (option 2) who can tell you how best to get support in your area.
Wiltshire Mind does not offer a Crisis Service.
Thank you.

how can we help and support you?
“Counselling has helped me to realise that I am worthy, strong and deserve the same love, care and respect that I give others”
“I am much calmer in general and less anxious. I feel more able to manage my emotions surrounding the issues I came to your service about”
“Although my existing/current issues of health and unemployment are ongoing, I feel that I have a more positive way of looking at myself as a whole and moving forward.”
