One to One Counselling
We have been providing counselling for people with disability, for over 30 years.
Anyone can submit a referral, including self-referrals, referrals from parents and carers, allied professionals and other health professionals, disability service providers and educators.
Some of the topics that can be covered by counselling are:
- Public and private concepts: this is the foundation to many topics, particularly, appropriate behaviours, protective education, sex, and consent.
- Protective education: supporting personal safety, abuse interruption and prevention
- Respectful relationships: supporting all aspects of developing and maintaining healthy relationships.
- Consent
- Sex and Sexuality
- Puberty and Hygiene
A full list of topics is available on our referral form or contact us on (08) 9227 6414 or via our contact form to discuss further.
