I am in final year of foundation degree in counselling and desperately need help writing my essay.

When I say help I mean with structure, grammar - writing it in an analytical way. The content I'm fine with I just don't explain things that well!

Are there any recommended people that I could email with support? Or get them to help with corrections???

I think you're asking quite a lot of someone.
How about posting a fairly short paragraph here and asking for corrections/suggestions and using that as a basis for the rest of the essay??
Another approach is to read it out loud to yourself. Where a phrase or sentence sounds wrong or clumsy, it probably is, and keep repeating/changing it till it sounds 'right'. Take your time, take a deep breath and you'll get there, and don't forget the spellcheck on Word just doesn't correct spelling but also grammar. If you don't have Word, load your essay onto a memory stick and go to your local library. You'll probably have to pay to use one of their computers, but it will be worth it.
Jenny has a good answer, and is what I would do.

You could also use this: http://www.hemingwayapp.com/

It highlights long or complex sentences which could be made more concise. It also has a rough way of detecting the passive voice.

This shouldn't be your only tool however.

Can you get another human being to read it once you think you're done?

Don't use anything of the sort. Write your essay and cite your references, but you do not need to point out to someone that a quote that you just said means something, you may come off as if you think your audience needs help understanding
