Locations all over Sydney
Carers NSW fund these groups to enable parents to
meet and tell their story, give and gain support from
other families and carers. The focus is on how to take
better care of ourselves and not “burn out”. The groups
deal with issues of family and relationships, the grief
process and how to cope on bad days. They can help
with the feelings of loss, isolation, exhaustion and the
impossible role of parenting different children.
The groups run for 2 hours, 8 consecutive weeks and
are run by a counsellor who is a mum of a child with
Autism.
Fees for groups are based on need, not ability to
pay phone to discuss you circumstances.

Counselling Support Groups
Justine has been running groups for parents of children with special needs since 2006. The group settings allow parents to meet and tell their story, give and gain support to each other. Attending the groups can help with the feelings of loss, isolation, exhaustion and the impossible role of parenting different children. The focus of the groups is on learning how to take better care of ourselves and not "burn out", the groups deal with issues of:-
· Family and relationships
· Grief - loss of the "normal" child
· Anxiety and overwhelm
· How to cope on bad days
· Taking our children out in public
· Talking to others about our child's diagnosis
The groups are located throughout Sydney and run for 2 hours
for 8 consecutive weeks. Participation in groups is funded by Carers NSW NCCP programme. (National Carers Counselling Programme.)
