Counselling Volunteering

Our highly regarded free counselling service provides long-term weekly counselling sessions for parents coping with mental health issues such as anxiety and depression, or the emotional impact of experiences such as family breakdown or domestic violence.

Sessions are intended for parents who wouldn’t otherwise be able to access this kind of therapeutic help to address underlying emotional issues. Parents can access the 1:1 sessions with clinically supervised volunteer trainee counsellors/psychotherapists in an accessible local venue (e.g. their local Children’s Centre).

If you are training to be a counsellor or a qualified therapist and are interested in finding out more information please contact Fatjona Borizani fatjona@homestartbarnet.org for more information.
