Therapeutic Mentoring

Even while a young person or adult may benefit from talking things through and engaging with a mental health professional, they are frequently not prepared to sit down in a therapeutic clinical setting and open up to someone they perceive as telling them what to do. As a therapeutic Mentor we first build a relationship built on shared interests.Each session will be client led and will look different every time. The aim of these sessions is to build safety in relating and to open up the conversation around healthy relationships, sexual health education their relationship to themselves and more. The session involves participating in the community and opening up the conversations in a non clinical setting.

Each session is a minimum 2 hours.

Group Sessions

The group sessions are for individuals that work well in group settings and would like support around creating healthy relationships, safe sex information and creating a healthy relationships with themselves.
