What our clients say...

“Thank you so much for having free group therapy sessions. I’ve never been able to go to therapy because I could never afford it. I’m excited to come again next week.”

“I have found the group an important support for my mental health challenges because I can’t afford counselling.”
Depression and Anxiety Group Attendee
“The depression and anxiety support group became a literal and figurative lifeline for me at a very difficult point in my life. It continues to be a greatly instrumental aspect in my recovery. The group’s existence allowed the detrimental effects of isolation to be broken and in its place a vibrant network of shared support, strength, and hope has sprung up. A beacon of light now shines evermore brightly, in what had been, a very dark place.”
