Term Time Groups

WHEN can you attend group sessions?

PLEASE NOTE: W e can experience periods of high demand for our services. There may be a waiting time for some services. It can be difficult to provide exact timelines as there are many factors to consider.  Our team works very hard using our Matching Matters Pathway to help us manage our waiting list as fairly, empathetically and responsively as possible.  The more information you give us about your needs and the more flexible you are in the service you want, the easier it is for us to meet your needs sooner. Some groups may only be available on certain days due to therapist and room availability.
