Counselling
Mother's Group

Mother's Monthly Group
For Mothers who have a child with an Intellectual Disability and/or Autism. This group, which meets from September to June, provides ongoing opportunities for connection and learning, often for those who have completed the weekly group. Direct entrance to the monthly group is also possible.
Father's Group
Individual Counselling for Parents/Siblings
There may be times when a parent/sibling may need one-to-one counselling to deal with the challenges around the diagnosis or ongoing behaviours their child/sibling may be exhibiting.
Individual Counselling for Adults with an Intellectual Disability
Our counsellor will be able to provide counselling services to adults with an intellectual disability and/or an autism spectrum disorder to help them cope with issues around their diagnosis. A caregiver (i.e., partner, parent, group home staff) will need to be available to meet with the counsellor once sessions begin.
Sibling Group
For siblings, aged 11-14, of individuals with autism. A six-week group that offers education and sharing using an interactive fun approach.
