Compass is here to help if you need us!

Compass staff and our team of amazing volunteers can provide remote sessions to all of our clients.  We are currently providing telephone and video counselling to  our current clients, as well as  new referrals.

Please do get in touch if you would like to refer yourself or be referred to our services and we will go through the  process with you and advise you of likely waiting times.  We will ask you at your referral if you would prefer counselling via telephone or video. We will aim to  let you know  what is available at Compass so you can make an informed decision about  the best next steps for you.

Are you a Qualified Counsellor yourself? Would you be interested in joining our fantastic volunteer team, then please contact ourselves on 0151 237 3993 or email enquiries@compass-counselling.org.uk as we are recruiting now! Please see our Counsellor page for more information.

Both our Level 2 Introduction to Counselling and  Level 2 Certificate in Counselling Skills courses  have recently completed and we are looking at hosting them both once again in September 2021. If you are interested in our courses or training please contact ourselves, and we will send you an application form.  We must remind any potential candidates that they need to reside or work within the Merseyside area even though the courses are remote, due to strict regulations with Compass being a charity.

We are unable to see any visitors  to the service without a prior appointment  and this would only be where other options were not available.

Our service is supported by the Steve Morgan Foundation and the Community Match Challenge – part of the governments £750m support package for charities #CommunitiesCan
