Hello, Does anyone from the UK know if you can get free therapy for ocd or a therapist for sexual orientation, or do you have to pay for these things? Many thanks
Depends on circumstances. I think you would need to speak to your GP first. If he/she agrees you may be able to receive a number of free sessions on the NHS.
Thanks for that ---------- Post added 17th Jul 2014 at 08:30 PM ---------- Do you have any idea what circumstances would qualify me for that?
Your GP would want to assess how the issues with OCD and/or sexual orientation are affecting you emotionally and what impact it's having on your life. He/she would need to be reasonably sure that the course of therapy would be effective before making a referral as there is a high demand. If you visit your GP, be as honest and descriptive as you can be (remembering that it's confidential) about the situation and how it's making you feel/affecting your daily routine. The more you can say, the better.
Thanks man, I think I'll have to do that, after all It's effecting my day to day life pretty badly. Thanks again
