Referral form for counselling and art therapy group
​
Due to high demand, we are not accepting new referrals at this time.
We will re-open our referral list as soon as we are able to.
​
​
TFSW offers refugees and asylum seekers free, specialised, long-term psychotherapy and counselling in Bristol. Unfortunately, we are not currently able to accept referrals for clients in Bath or anywhere else in the South West.
​
Please note, although we do our best to see clients for an initial session soon after referral, we do have a waiting list and are not a front-line crisis service.
We try to be as accessible as possible; we provide interpreters and can see clients both in person and remotely.
​
We only take third party referrals from:
