Counselling is provided by staff and trained volunteers (family support practitioners) who are qualified to Counselling Diploma level (or equivalent). It can be one-to-one, in couple, through family therapy, play therapy or art therapy. Counselling helps people where the diagnosis of the child has caused very high levels of stress and/or has re-triggered emotions connected to earlier issues.
