For parents and families of children with Special Needs living in Havering.
Do you sometimes feel like you are going round in circles?
Would you like to talk things through with someone safely and confidentially?
You may want to talk about how you have been feeling since finding out a child
in your family has special needs. You may want to talk about other issues that
are not necessarily connected. Counselling gives you the time to focus on what
is going on in your life. A safe space which is for you and you alone. A counsellor
will not judge you but will work with you to help you find your own answers.
The Counselling Service is available to Havering parents and family members where
there is a child with special needs. The term special needs relates to physical,
sensory, learning or emotional difficulties. Please do not hesitate to contact
the Counsellor should you have any queries with regard to eligibility for this
service.
