COUNSELLING (INDIVIDUAL, GROUP, AND FAMILY) 

Counselling can help people with mental and developmental disabilities feel better. There is lots of research to support that counselling is effective for people with developmental disabilities. Counselling can be life-enhancing and promote positive change. We will offer those affected by disabilities a unique opportunity to work with a physically and mentally disabled counsellor who has the professional knowledge and personal insight to offer a deep understanding of disability issues.

Our counselling services will aim to achieve personal growth and change within the individual by providing a confidential space of acceptance, genuineness, understanding, and empathy. 

We will provide counselling intended to support groups or families of people with mental illness, the homeless mentally ill, and people who both abuse alcohol or drugs and have a mental illness. Counselling will improve and even save lives. Seeking counselling is a sign of courage and strength because it’s an essential step in taking charge of developmental and mental health and creating the life that such individuals deserve. We will encourage people to engage in our counselling services through which they can gain:

  • Personal empowerment 
  • Hope
  • The overcoming of demoralization caused by social stigma 
  • Acceptance of life 
  • Personal insight 
  • Life skills 
  • Wellness 
  • Prevention of future mental health distress
