Questions before you start
What does it cost?
ViaCara is free for you. You pay your professional directly, at the rate they set, often £40 to £90 a session outside London. What therapy costs
What happens to what I say?
It shapes your shortlist, and each professional we ask about you sees a short summary, not the conversation. If you may be at risk, the professional you book with gets a brief note so they take extra care.
Who is it for?
Anyone 18 or over in the UK or Channel Islands who wants to talk something through with the right person. That might be a hard time, a change you want to make or a habit you want to break.
What happens after the conversation?
You see a small shortlist of professionals who fit what you told us. When one feels right, confirm your email and reach out in your own time.
How are professionals checked?
We check each professional's registration before we suggest them, and we suggest only people whose insurance is current.
