Tom's Story

Tom's Story

Tom was referred for counselling by his parents. He had a sister with disabilities and a recent diagnosis had a huge impact on the family. He was also very stressed with his school work. Counselling helped Tom lean some coping strategies and provide tools for managing stressful situations.

"The service was very kind and understanding. I felt I had support and someone to speak to and trust."

The 4U and 4Me Youth Groups exist in the city to support children and young people who identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, gender variant or who are questioning their gender identity or sexuality.

An experienced, skilled youth team offers a weekly youth group in a safe, secure, and supportive environment. Each week, activities are designed to help improve self-esteem, give young people a social outlet to make new friends, and provide information to support them as they move into adulthood.

To access the groups, the child, young person or family member will first need to have a conversation with our Specialist Support Worker to establish if the group is right for them or whether alternative support would be more suitable. To arrange a time to speak with the team, email LGBTYoungPeople@portsmouthcc.gov.uk, or to make a referral, complete the referral form with the appropriate contact details of the young person, parent or their support worker.

For 13-19 year-olds: There is the 4U Youth Group on Tuesdays from 6pm - 9pm

For 18-25 year-olds: The 4Me Youth Group is on Thursdays from 7pm - 9pm.

The Youth Group space has step-free access and an accessible toilet, although some hallways are pretty narrow. If you have any questions about access, contact us for more information. We will be happy to help.

Getting started is simple. Whether you refer yourself or are referred by an organisation, here's what happens next:

Initial call: We'll talk with you to learn about your situation and answer your questions. This call will help you understand more about the project so you can decide if you'd like to go ahead.

Preparing everyone: If you decide to continue, we'll meet with you to explore what you'd like to achieve and who you'd like to involve. Our facilitator will then speak to everyone invited, including any children if you wish for them to participate. We will make sure everyone is ready to help.

Bringing everyone together: We'll gather the people you've chosen to create a clear plan of action. This session helps everyone understand the situation, people's view and the support opportunities available. Together, you will work to create a Plan.

Follow-up: If needed, we'll meet again a few months later to review progress and adjust the Plan if necessary.

We do this every day and have lots of experience supporting families in different situations. Our goal is to help everyone understand what's happening, plan ways to support each other, and connect with specialist services if needed.
What are some of the situations that The Dragonfly Project can support?

Family changes e.g. relationship breakdown, separation, or divorce

A big reason parents use our database is for the curated lists of games. These are hand-picked selections by our team, to help you find unusual and interesting games for your family. Here are some popular lists at the moment, or you can browse the full selection:

These lists have just been added to the database in the last few weeks.

These are games that are helpful for mental health. This includes games that have been helpful for specific mental health challenges, as well as games that help us understand the challenge faced by the people we love. Some of these are designed to be used as a source of games that offer wellbeing in different ways.

These relate to games with different educational benefits. Along with games that are designed to be educational, this includes games that can inspire learning and knowledge because of the worlds and stories they create. The collateral learning uncovered here is a glimpse into the ways games can help children learn about themselves, their community and the world.

Re:Minds is a Southampton based organisation supporting families whose children/young people have Autism, ADHD or other neurodiverse needs and/or mental health needs - with or without a diagnosis. Our aim is to allow people whose children face similar issues to meet up in an informal setting to share knowledge and talk about any challenges our families are facing. We don't claim to be experts, just other families who understand what it can feel like to be on this journey.

​

We are the primary link between families and Southampton Specialist CAMHS and offer speakers on a range of topics.

As well as groups, we have a multiple large, private Facebook Groups for peer support for families and up-to-date information about our work.

​

We also share regular updates on Twitter and in our monthly newsletter.

​

All of our speaker meetings are shared on our youtube account so nobody misses out. The videos offer a wealth of advice and strategies from CAMHS and other services on autism, ADHD, anxiety, emotional regulation and more.

Tom's Story

Tom's Story

Tom was referred for counselling by his parents. He had a sister with disabilities and a recent diagnosis had a huge impact on the family. He was also very stressed with his school work. Counselling helped Tom lean some coping strategies and provide tools for managing stressful situations.

"The service was very kind and understanding. I felt I had support and someone to speak to and trust."

Re:Minds is a Southampton based organisation supporting families whose children/young people have Autism, ADHD or other neurodiverse needs and/or mental health needs - with or without a diagnosis. Our aim is to allow people whose children face similar issues to meet up in an informal setting to share knowledge and talk about any challenges our families are facing. We don't claim to be experts, just other families who understand what it can feel like to be on this journey.

​

We are the primary link between families and Southampton Specialist CAMHS and offer speakers on a range of topics.

As well as groups, we have a multiple large, private Facebook Groups for peer support for families and up-to-date information about our work.

​

We also share regular updates on Twitter and in our monthly newsletter.

​

All of our speaker meetings are shared on our youtube account so nobody misses out. The videos offer a wealth of advice and strategies from CAMHS and other services on autism, ADHD, anxiety, emotional regulation and more.

Are you a young person living in the district of Winchester?

Do you ever feel stressed, anxious, or down? You're not alone.

Mental health is just as important as physical health, and it's OK to ask for help. That's where Winchester Youth Counselling comes in. We offer ways to help you deal with your feelings and feel better.

That's where we come in.

A trained counsellor can assist you in understanding your feelings and provide coping mechanisms. It takes a little work and might be a bit embarrassing at first, but we're here to help you every step of the way.

Don't wait until things get too much. If you're struggling, reach out to us today.

We are here to help you

Are you a young person struggling right now?

Parents, do you need our help?

Do you work with young people?

As part of our charity mission here at WYC, we aim to continue to build on our position as a youth-led organisation, advocating for positive outcomes in mental health for young people.

In line with our charity values, we continue to increase our community networks and partnerships, spotlighting our youth board.
