Mental Health Counselling and Therapy Services for Children and Families

Hope project can help with your mental health

Many people are put off asking for counselling/therapy because they are not sure how it can make a difference. Consider some of these questions that may help your decision…

When you feel therapy would be beneficial, where do you go?
What would it be like if your problem never got better?
If you were worried about your child, do you think you would act on it?
Feeling concerned about your child; can you feel your own wellbeing being affected?
How could outcome measures and setting goals help you to get back on track quicker?
Would it be easier to use self-help, computerised therapy or online individual therapy?

It is surprising how helpful talking things over can be. Do not give up because you and your child/family ARE worth it. There is ALWAYS HOPE

Free Consultation

We offer a free 15 minute consultation prior to therapy. Please call us to find out how we can help.

Preparing for Therapy

Prior to our first conversation consider what it is you want to change. What help have you used in the past and what difference has that made? What do we need to achieve to make your sessions worth the investment in you? If you had set a goal, where are you at right now with that goal? What skills and strengths do you have that will help you achieve your goal?
