"Hello I posted yesterday about going for a hysterectomy privately, now I’m looking for more advice on a similar topic. For context: I’ve had mental health problems since a child and I was fobbed off by the NHS even after being diagnosed. I was finally listened to last year and was given therapy and it was extended to 9 weeks and when it finished my counsellor said she’s putting me on the waiting list for 16 week therapy; the problem is; I don’t know how long that waiting list is or how long I’ll be waiting. I already waited a long time to get to that therapy in the first place. I’m wondering whether it’s worth going private and removing myself from the waiting list? I know it’s very expensive to go private, and I’m going to have to explain all my issues all over again, but my mental health is very complex so a private therapist might be able to help me more? But I also don’t want to go to a private therapist if I’m on the waiting list; as that could literally mean I’m on top of the waiting list. Can I do both private therapy AND NHS therapy? I’ve researched but all the answers I get are ambiguous. Just looking for some advice pls!! P.S. Keep your negative comments to yourself " Having two therapies at the same time is not recommended, and you will be hard pushed to find anyone to do it, even if your paying. Therapies can work against each other, undoing good or perhaps making it worse. Now if you can find a counsellor that will see you on the NHS and take your cash working on the same issue, with the same therapies, that might be doable but it’s just a bit much for the noggin to take. | |||

"The 16 week sessions may or may not help you depending on who you get. You'll likely get the first available counsellor/therapist and have 16 weeks probing away and discussing your problems. It'll be no different to the 9 weeks only more drawn out. Though having no experience of private therapy I know people that have. Finding someone qualified in what you want resolving will have it done faster and with greater depth. If you don't have an appointment time already it'll be a long time before you do, so get on the waiting list and cancel it should you take private therapy, but it'll be expensive, upward of £100 per session " More like £300.
