One of the core services of the Alicia Community Centre is peer counselling, conducted by trained social service professionals. These professionals offer a safe environment and listening ear with no judgement, enabling both men and women to get the support they need.

Our peer counsellors have worked with youths and adults, in a range of different issues and have experience in the following:

• Sexual orientation and gender identity

• Relationships with family members and partners

• Personal issues, including coping with school, National Service and employment

• Other issues, including partner violence, bereavement and loss

Session Details

Each session at Alicia CC will last 45 minutes, or as recommended by the peer counsellor.
