Free Counselling
Here at Joseph’s Corner, we provide free professional counselling to individuals who need support around having a family member or friend experiencing addiction.
Joseph’s Corner provides counselling via phone, video chat or face to face.
We are easily accessible, with no referral required and just a phone call away.
We are here to support you if your family member or friend is experiencing the following:
- Substance misuse or addiction
- Alcohol misuse or addiction
- Gambling addiction
- Other addiction issues. Perhaps your family member or friend is affected by an addiction that is less often recognised. We are here to support you too.
Our counsellors will provide support tailored to your needs. Often when a family member or friend has addiction issues, we find ourselves confronting:
- Our own mental health issues
- Anxiety
- Stress
- Depression
- Isolation
- A sense of hopelessness
- Self-doubt
- Financial or legal issues
- Conflict in our relationships
- Family and domestic violence
- Issues around anger management.
You are not alone in your struggle. Now is a good time to start talking about it.
" I never thought this would happen to me and I had no idea I could access support for myself. Until I came to counselling, I had not realised I was enabling my child in their addiction. Counselling has helped me learn to cope in our relationship. "
" I felt so entangled in a web of manipulation, I felt hopeless. In coming to counselling I learned to regain my strength and make sense of what was happening in our home. Talking with my counsellor helped me take small steps to manage the chaos."
" I felt so hopeless, counselling empowered me to look after myself. "
" My partner is really sick, and I didn’t know how to help him because he shut me out. Coming to counselling has helped give me strategies. "
" Often I’m so overwhelmed that I don’t do anything and just bury myself in whatever is happening around me. All I needed to do was take the first step in asking for help. "
