About the event
Caring for Carers is a combination Workshop and Support Group.
This group (which first began at Danielle's Place back in 2006) was created to help bridge the gap in services, and help support carers. Due to lack of services available carers often end up in the position of supporting loved ones through their Mental Illness. This workshop aims to bring like minded individuals together in a safe, confidential and supportive environment to discuss tough topics.
This group is appropriate for:
Individuals (parents, friends, spouses) who are supporting a loved one who may be struggling with Anxiety, Self Esteem challenges, Inability to attend school, Eating Disorders, Depression etc.
Individuals who are open to learning strategies, skills and discussing the challenges that come with learning to navigate Mental Illness in the home.
Individuals who are feeling the impact of carer burn out (feeling tired, hopeless, agitated, confused and scared).
