Youth Counselling - Menslink

We believe that young men have lots of potential and much to offer our community. But we know that everyone, including young men, face challenges at some point in their lives. Some of the challenges facing young men include:

• Hassles with parents – often in mixed families
• Being bullied at school, at home or in the neighbourhood
• Problems with a teacher or boss
• Something bad happening to someone close (death in the family, etc)
• Relationship break up
• Losing a job or having problems getting a job
• Money worries
• Using alcohol or drugs to cope with difficult issues
• Being controlled by anger or other destructive emotions
• Addictions to things like Internet porn or gambling
• Adjusting to life outside school, home or detention

If you know (or you are) a young guy facing a challenge and could really use someone to talk to, give us a call and come in for a chat. We believe that young men are capable of finding solutions from their own strengths and resources. Our counselling service helps them identify and access those resources in order to bring about positive changes in their lives. We provide a safe place for young men to explore options to solve challenges that may have arisen at school, at home, with friends, their health, their money situation or even their spirituality. If needed, we can also work with parents or other significant people in their life. All services at Menslink are free. There are no fees or charges. They’re completely confidential and counselling is available to any young guy aged 10-25. Counselling is offered at our office in Holder, or at selected schools and centres around Canberra.
