Mental Health and Counselling
Sometimes you need someone other than your parents, or mates to talk to…
Young people face so many challenges growing up it is unsurprising it sometimes takes its toll mentally.
At Future, we know it is vital young people are listened to and understood.
Mental Health First Aiders
On every session we have Youth Workers who are trained Mental Health First Aiders. They are equipped with the skills they need to support any young person who is facing challenges with their mental health. They are there to listen and talk things through.
“Even though this feeling feels ‘weird’ or ‘unreal’ it’s normal to have your bad days because there are better days ahead”
FUTURE NOW: ANA'S STORY
“I joined Future because I heard there was a place to talk. I struggle with my mental health, family issues and self confidence; so when I knew I had a chance to get better I asked for help.
“I started Place2Talk and then started counselling for even further guidance and to learn to cope with emotions that ‘talk over me’.
“The people at Future are so kind and supportive. The process has helped me realise that even though this feeling feels ‘weird’ or ‘unreal’ it’s normal to have your bad days because there are better days ahead.”
