Operating Days & Times
Many carers experience complicated feelings related to their role as a carer. Emotions like anger, depression, anxiety, loneliness, loss and grief are very common.
Your family and friends can provide important support but you may find it helpful to talk with an objective professional who is not emotionally involved with you or the person you are caring for.
Our carer counselling program can link you up with qualified professionals who understand the problems that caring families often face.
You can talk to us by yourself or include your partner and other family members.
We can help you:
Deal with overwhelming and confusing feelings
Make sense of your experiences as a carer
Work out your own needs and solve problems
Manage conflict, stress and other emotional factors that make caring more difficult
Build resilience and cope with change
Improve your mental, emotional and physical wellbeing
