Further Information
LOW COST THERAPY SERVICE FOR PEOPLE REQUIRING ORGAN TRANSPLANTATION.
Have you been affected by:
- Needing or having had organ transplantation?
- Are you supporting someone who needs or has had a transplant?
- Have been or are considering being a live donor?
If you are affected by any of the above then having some counselling may help.
I am one of very few counsellor's who has experience of caring for someone who has experienced kidney failure and required kidney transplantation from a deceased and living donor. This experience has given me first hand experience of how someone deals/copes with the effects of living with and supporting someone who has a life threatening illness where transplantation is required.
If face to face counselling is not convenient for you then telephone counselling can be an excellent alternative. Please contact me to discuss more.
- Online, email or telephone counselling available
