Accessible therapy for all

At The Laurel Centre, we believe that financial constraints should not be a barrier to accessing therapy for sex and porn addiction. To make our services as inclusive as possible, we offer a variable fee structure, allowing clients to contribute based on their financial situation. Some clients pay more than others, ensuring support for those in need.

Bursary fund and donations

As part of our commitment to accessibility, we donate 10% of our annual profits to a bursary fund. This fund helps subsidise places in our recovery courses for those who otherwise couldn’t afford them. Additionally, generous donations from past clients further support this initiative.

Flexible fee structure

We understand that discussing fees can feel uncomfortable, and we strive to accommodate your financial circumstances. Our standard fee is £125 per session, with a sliding scale that allows for lower fees down to £90 if needed. Some clients, based on their means, choose to contribute more, sometimes over £200 per session. Their generosity enables us to support those with limited financial resources.

Rest assured, the amount you pay does not affect the quality or expertise of therapy you receive. For those unable to afford the minimum fee, we can sometimes offer low-cost therapy sessions with therapists in training.*

Initial consultation and payment options

We encourage all potential clients to use our ‘Talk to a Therapist’ service. This consultation allows you to discuss your concerns, explore our available services, and determine the most suitable therapy approach. During this session, you can also discuss what you can afford and explore payment options for individual or couples counselling, recovery courses, or partner support groups.

Affordable group therapy and payment plans

Our group therapy programmes provide an effective and cost-efficient way to understand sex addiction, establish recovery, and address underlying issues. If a group course is the right fit for you, we require a deposit to secure your place, but the remaining balance can be paid in monthly instalments to suit your budget.

We are committed to working with you to ensure that financial concerns do not prevent you from getting the help you need.

Please note that we require 48 hours notice to cancel an appointment and the full fee may be taken if we are unable to re-fill your slot time.

Typical fee range

You can reserve a place on any of our scheduled face-to-face courses for a fixed fee of £95 which includes the initial consultation, final booking is confirmed after receipt of £800 deposit (£500 for partner groups).

*Our therapists in training are all fully qualified and experienced counsellors who have completed at least module 1 of 3 modules of our Accredited Diploma in Sex Addiction Counselling and are supervised by an experienced sex addiction therapist.
