Detailed Review
Spill lives where small teams already talk. Employees reach a counsellor from Slack, Teams or email, and the pricing page lists two plans on a month-to-month basis.
The terms name Spill App Ltd as the owner and operator, and the site gives a London address in Cheapside.
Two plans
Core EAP covers unlimited message-based counselling, drop-in sessions and self-help content for GBP 75 per month. The Treatment plan adds unlimited structured counselling sessions for mental health issues at GBP 145 per month, as shown on the pricing page.
Counsellor standards
The pricing FAQ says counsellors are registered with local bodies, for example the BACP in the UK, and have at least three years of academic therapy training.
Contract terms
Cancellation needs 30 days' notice before the next payment, and there are no long-term contracts or cancellation fees.
Limitations to Consider
Spill also operates in the US and Australia, and the plans are priced by company size, so the GBP 75 starting figure applies to the smallest tier shown. Counselling here is employer-funded and not designed for individual purchase. Message-based support can feel less personal than video,. For a Netherlands-based alternative see OpenUp.
Who Should Use Spill
Small UK-based employers who want counselling inside the chat tools staff already use, without a long contract.
