We are a Community Interest Company (CIC) in Wellington that offers free & affordable counselling therapy to the whole community. We have been operating since March 2017 devoting most of our time supporting the most vulnerable children and families in our community. We take referrals from GPs, GetSet, PFSAs, Health Visitors, & like to work holistically & inclusively with our clients. We also provide employment for local counsellors, & are widely supported by the local community.
Why the community needs usWe provide counselling at the point of need and do not offer time limited therapeutic help but work with the emotional/ psychological needs of the client in mind, their family and the community.
Our impact on the communityWe have helped over a hundred people so far, children,young people, whole families, adults. Our work also extends to helping victims of domestic abuse, their children and the communities they live in, to get stronger, develop better understanding of how to meet the needs of their children and break the cycle of violence. Our working relationship with other professionals in the community is strong and successful at getting help to people who wouldn't otherwise access counselling.
