Counselling and Support

The Counselling, Consulting and Continuing Care Team of experienced counsellors assist people to deal with problems associated with alcohol and other drug use.

Programs may be offered on an individual or group basis.

Counselling and support is provided to those who are experiencing problematic drug use, their families and friends.

Clients include members of the general community as well as those on court orders, drug diversion programs and at Port Phillip Prison.

Playgroups
There is also a Playgroup program offered. A playgroup is a group of parents or carers who meet weekly with their babies, toddlers or pre-schoolers. Playgroups are about children having fun and learning through play, while the parent/carer makes new friends and shares experiences.
