Profile
At The Armada Project we appreciate that having a safe place to talk is essential when trying to find a counsellor. But, it's just the beginning. There are still many decisions to be made such as the model of counselling best suited to your needs, which is why it is important that you are in the hands of a trained professional counsellor from the outset.
The Armada Team offer a unique 'Consultation Appointment' system which is designed to familiarise you with the counselling process at low cost. This allows a collaborative exploration of your individual needs before embarking on any course of counselling. Please see our website for further information.
Our Private Consulting Rooms are set within a multi-functional commercial area offering both discretion and accesssibility for our clients. We are located in St Albans town centre within reach of local bus and train services and NCP car parks.
