Olive Branch Counselling is a counselling and listening service based in Chippenham in north Wiltshire.  We are a registered charity and all of our counsellors are volunteers.  Our premises are in the centre of Chippenham.

We aim to provide a safe, secure and confidential environment in which to address issues in people's lives that are causing concern, with a view to bringing about positive change.

Who can we help?

We offer our services to all adults in the Chippenham area and beyond, regardless of race, colour, religion, sexual orientation, social background or financial circumstances.

We are able to help people deal with all types of issues including bereavement and loss, relationships, life management, sexual abuse, unresolved childhood traumas, post-traumatic stress, low self-esteem, domestic violence, anger, self-harm, anxiety and many other problems.

Our Counsellors

Olive Branch is staffed by qualified and experienced volunteer counsellors from a Christian background.  Our counsellors have been trained in a variety of counselling approaches in order to meet the individual needs of our clients.

We have a team of ten trained counsellors, some of whom are qualified to diploma level, and all are undergoing further training to ensure their skills and knowledge are kept up-to-date.  

How much does it cost?

We do not charge a fee for counselling but we ask for contributions at a level that is affordable for each person.

No limit is placed on the number of hourly sessions, and this helps some people who need to work through difficult and deep-seated issues.
