Simeon Centre Counselling Service

Our Mission: To promote positive mental health by providing a safe and confidential counselling service.

Who We Are


Since 1999, The Simeon Centre Counselling Service has offered a confidential counselling service, free at the point of need, for people living in and around Bolton.


We are dedicated to providing a welcome breathing space and an opportunity for you to be heard in a peaceful and sensitive environment.


We are dedicated to accepting all of our clients as they are, allowing them to self-reflect without the fear of judgement.


Our Counsellors


We have around fifty counsellors who all volunteer for the Simeon Centre.


Our counsellors are a mix of therapists working towards their Masters Degree in Counselling and Psychology, and qualified counsellors.

All of our volunteers follow the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy's Ethical Framework for the Counselling Professions.

Our counsellors are also subject to ongoing training and to regular supervision from independent practitioners, to ensure their continued ethical practice.
