Cost of private psychology soars in UK as practitioners turn away clients

The cost of private psychology services in the UK has soared, with prices rising by 34% since 2022. According to a survey by myTribe Insurance, the average cost of 12 sessions has increased from £1,152 to £1,550, and the average cost of a single consultation has risen from £96 to £129.20. Additionally, 29% of psychologists are now turning away new patients due to high demand. The highest prices are charged in England, while Scotland has the shortest waiting times, and Wales the longest. The increasing costs and limited availability of private psychology services in the UK are a growing concern for those seeking mental health support.
