One-on-One Emotional Support

Those who feel uncomfortable in a group have access to one-on-one support

This program is for those who prefer to speak confidentially to one person. Depending on the situation, either our Community Guide, counsellor or trained volunteeers provide this service.

A man in his thirties, looking after his mother in his home, was having difficulty dealing with a critical brother. A male volunteer listened to his feelings of anger and resentment towards this brother and acknowledged his caring feelings for his mother and the hard work involved in looking after her. This helped him find the energy needed to continue caregiving.
