Counselling project in Warwickshire to support children and parents

New counselling project in Warwickshire to support children and parents

A new project called Strengthened Families will support children and parents in Warwickshire with their wellbeing.

It will be managed by the Parenting Project who are a voluntary organisation in Warwickshire working with children and young people, including those with Special Educational Needs and Disability from 0 – 25 and their parents to help them with their mental health needs alongside their general health and wellbeing.

Parenting Project will be offering 1-1 counselling sessions for parents, which are confidential, person-centred and use a trauma informed approach which explores what is important to individuals and strategies that can help them.

The project is one of 36 funded through Warwickshire County Council’s COVID-19 Mental Wellbeing and Resilience Fund that has awarded £750k to support local community groups and businesses.

Counselling sessions can be accessed via phone, virtual sessions through zoom or face to face, and Parenting Project can offer up to 18 sessions of counselling.
