One-to-One Support

Sometimes, you just need someone to talk to.

A safe space to talk

We're here to listen

Our one-to-one support is available to anyone accessing the centre who would benefit from having a safe, private and non-judgemental space to chat and offload.

You don't need to be experiencing a particular problem or going through a crisis. You might be having a difficult day, feeling overwhelmed, struggling with something in your life, or simply feel like you need to get things off your chest.

There is no pressure.

A member of our team will be there to listen without judgement. You can share as much or as little as you feel comfortable with, and you don't have to talk about anything you don't want to.

One-to-one support isn't counselling or therapy. It's simply an opportunity to sit down with someone who has the time to listen.

You might use your one-to-one time to:

  • Have a chat and get things off your chest
  • Talk about something that has been worrying you
  • Share how you've been feeling
  • Talk through something happening in your life
  • Ask for information about other support or services
  • Or simply have someone listen
You don't need to have the right words or know what you want to say.

Sometimes having someone there to listen can make a difference. Whatever is on your mind, we're here to listen.
