Carer Counselling Service
Estabished 2009
At Southend Carers we offer a FREE Counselling service to carers to be able to speak to a trained counsellor in confidence in a comfortable setting.
Carers are a unique group of people who provide free care for their loved ones, friends or neighbours often resulting in the carer themselves becoming unwell due to exhaustion, stress, frustration, anxiety, isolation and sometimes financial pressures, due to the heavy demands of their caring role.
We have a quarterly 6-week emotional support programme for carers called WAVES where within a small group, we discuss how the caring role makes us feel, and learn strategies to be able to cope better with challenging situations.
If you would like to access this service call 01702-393933 to book a place or email counselling@southendcarers.co.uk if you wish to contact our Carer Counselling Service.
