  1. Disability Action Wellbeing Hub

Disability Action Wellbeing Hub

We are here to listen. 

Disability Action Mental Health Counselling offers talking therapy delivered by qualified therapists who will listen to you and help you find ways to deal with emotional issues.

Bespoke counselling is open to carers of people with disabilities and health conditions. You can have access to 16 one to one sessions. 

Sessions can:

  • give you a safe time and place to talk to someone who won't judge you
  • help you make sense of things and understand yourself better
  • help you resolve complicated feelings, or find ways to live with them
  • help you recognise unhelpful patterns in the way you think or act, and find ways to change them if you want to.

Delivered by Qualified Counsellors

The service is delivered by qualified integrative counsellors with lived experience and an acute knowledge of the issues and challenges facing disabled people and their carers.

How will counselling be delivered

Up to sixteen counselling sessions will be delivered via telephone, digitally (ie zoom) or face to face.

Project beneficiaries will also have access to accessible support materials and coaching from other experts within Disability Action.

For more information
